WORD DISTORTION 
LAID TO THE BOARD 


ing Declares. 


The National Labor Relation

Court of Appeals for the Eighth 


quested by the Labor Board, order- 
ing the International Shoe Co. to 
drop recognition of a local union 
‘at its plant at Hannibal, Mo, 

» The Labor Board had contended 


t the union, called the West- 
ern Brotherhood of Sohe and Rub- 
ber Workers, was a company 
union, founded and dominated by 
the company. To build up _ this 
contention, the Circuit. Court of 
Appeals said, the Labor Board in- 
dulged in the “labored distortion 
of innocent and harmless. re- 
marks.” 

“Some re@traint is exercised,” the 
winion continued, “when we say 
only that a hodge-podge of sus- 
picions, far-fetched inferences and 
pure guesses the like of this one 
not often has been built up.” 

On Study of the Record. 

“One who studies the record to 
find in it evidence that the com- 
pany dominated the Brotherhood 
will be at a loss, we think, to find 
that evidence. 

“Indeed, extended comment is 
impossible. We find nothing that 
one trained in the law, and true to 
ithe traditions of the law, would 
characterize .as substantial evi- 
nee, even as a scintilla of. evi- 

, and nothing thé@t within the 
more liberal standards of the Na- 
tional Labor Relations Act can be 
called substantial evidence.” 

The opinion was written by Dis- 
i trict Judge Merrill E, Otis of Kan- 

City, who was sitting on the 

pellate bench, and was con- 
curred in by Judges Kimbrough 

Stone and Archibald K. Gardner. 

Had 46-Day Hearing. 
The Labor Board’s order had 
‘deen issued in May, 1939, and an 
&ppeal was taken by the shoe com- 
pany. The board’s order was based 
on the intermediate report of Trial 

Examiner David F. Smith of Wash- 

on, who conducted a 46-day

Hannibal in the spring of 1938.

U. 9. AIDS CALLED. 
TO HEAR FAGTS ON 
BRITISH FINANCES 


Same Men Attended Earlier 
Meetings Preceding Dis- 
closure of Steps to As- 
sist England. 


WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 (AP).— 
High defense and fiscal officials 
of the administration were called 
in today to hear the facts of Great 
Britain’s financial resources 
brought here by Sir Frederick Phil- 
lips, Undersecretary of the British 
Treasury. 

Ranking members of the War, 
Navy, State and Treasury depart- 
ments and the National Defense 
Commission were invited to meet 
with Secretary of the Treasury 
Morgenthau. Morgenthau talked 
for two hours in the privacy of his 
own home with Phillips last night. 
Although Treasury officials de- 
clined to comment on today’s meet- 
ing, it was known that Phillips was 
supposed to have presented to Mor- 
genthau last night what the Briton 


of our financial resources and costs 
of supply.” 

The call was sent out to the of- 
ficials to meet at an undisclosed 
hour late this afternoon, and went 
out to the same group that met in 
Morgenthau’s office the day before 
Phillips arrived in the United 
States last week. 

Similar meetings have been held 


3 before every important pronounce- 


ment of administration policy on 
aid to Great Britain, including the 


sea and air bases, and the release 
of four-motored bombers to Great 
Britain. : 

Morgenthau had nothing to say 
after his talk with Phillips last 
night. 

It was Mogenthau’s second talk 
with Sir Frederick since the Brit- 
ish expert arrived here last week, 
and Morgenthau made plain before 
last night’s meeting that “there 
will be no commitments” as far as 
the United States is concerned dur- 
ing the conversations. 
“The administration,” he _ said, 
“has not made up its mind yet” on 
the subject of considering the ques- 
tion of financial aid to Great Brit- 


jain.

Condition of Jawbone Re- 
ported More Serious 
Than Anticipated—Long- 
er Stay in Miami Hospi- 


tal Advised. 


MIAMI, Fla., Dec. 10 (AP).—The 
Duches of Windsor underwent a 
major dental operation beginning 


today, and Dr. Horace L. Cartee re- 
ported she reacted “promptly and 
favorably.” 

Twenty-five minutes after the 
anaesthetic was administered, the 
Duchess left the operating room. 
Later Dr. Cartee issued this bulle- 
“The~ | the operation 
was most satisfactory. The condi- 
tion of the jawbone was more 
serious than anticipated. The pa- 
tient withstood the operation well 
and reacted promptly and favor- 
ably. 

“The present condition of the pa- 
tient is satisfactory, but I have rec- 
ommended to his Royal Highness 
that the Duchess stay here at the 
hospital longer than previously 
planned, which may necessitate de- 
iay in plans to return to Nassau.” 
Afterward, the Duke announced 
he and the entire party probably 
would remain at the hospital at 
least until Friday. A three-room 
wing was prepared for them there. 
The unexpected seriousness of the 
operation caused abandonment of 
plans to move into a hotel tomor- 
row and return to Nassau Friday 
on a passenger steamer, 
“Everyone has been so very 
kind,” Windsor said. “The Duchess 
and I are deeply appreciative.” 

The Duchess had a molar on the 
right jaw removed because of an in- 
fected root. The operation required 
scraping ‘the root. 

On her arrival the Duchess 
looked smart and in good spirits 
despite the reason for her visit. 

The Duke and his American-born 
Duchess arrived aboard the yacht 
Southern Cross and went through 
the formalities of receiving digni- 
taries and talking with reporters. 

A crowd taxed police lines and 
blocked traffic to get a glimpse of 
the pair. When the Windsors ap- 
peared on deck, a roar of applause 
rose from the crowd. 

She was dressed in a two-piece 
fall ensemble of navy blue and blue 
felt cap with mercury wings of 
white-tipped blue. 

Answering questions as to how 
she was feeling, the Duke comment- 
ed: 
“I think her appearance here an- 
swers that.” 

He declined to discuss the Brit- 
ish war effort, with the remark: 

“I formerly was a free lance, but, 
after all, I’m an official of the 
Government now.” 

The royal party was greeted by

‘Wooden Leg Fraternity’ Founder’s 
Son Loses Limb in Traffic Crash 


Paul M. Campbell, whose father, 
Paul J., founded the Fraternity of 
the Wooden Leg last spring, is re- 
covering today at St. Mary’s Hos- 
amputation of his left leg midway 
between knee and ankle. 

Young Paul, 17 years old, a sen- 


suffered a compound fracture Sat- 


a left turn from United States 66 


pital, East St. Louis, following the | jury 


of Edwardsville. His father, pub- 
lisher of the neighborhood Canteen 
News, has worn an artificial leg 
since 1915, when amputation was 
required by infection of an old in- 


Following transfusion, the youth 
is expected to be able in.a few 
days to be taken to their home, 
3245 Audubon avenue. There the 
elder Campbell said his fraternity 
now has several hundred members, 
all the way from Cork to. Shanghai.

predominance? 
I asked Foreign Minister Yosuke 
Matsuoka, at his unprecedentedly 


outspoken press conference here 
yesterday, to define the limits of 


that zone. He replied that, while 
there were many views on that 
subject, he himself felt that it in- 
cluded China, Manchoukuo, Thai- 
land and other South Pacific coun- 
tries as far south as New Caledo- 
nia, “but not including Australia 
and New Zealand.” (Apparently, 
because he did not except them 
specifically, his “Greater East Asia” 
includes the Philippine Islands, the 
Dutch East Indies, British posses- 
sions in Borneo and New Guinea 
and possibly Sumatra.) 


Great Changes Predicted. 


Matsuoka predicted that condi- 
tions in Greater East Asia would 
be “greatly changed” in the next 
10 years. Japan, he said, was ready 
to help any country wishing to de- 
termine its own destiny. 

While asserting that Japan’s in- 
terest in the Dutch East Indies 
was purely economic and that Ja- 
pan had no aggressive designs on 
any South Pacific countries, Mat- 
suoka added the qualification that 
these countries must determine 
their policies “to the mutual bene- 
fit of all concerned.” 

The door was not closed to a 
direct peace between Tokyo and 
Chiang Kai-shek, Matsuoka said, 
although he felt that peace was “a 
little far away.” He declared there 
was no possibility, “just now,” of 
Japan’s modifying its policy toward 
China for the sake of better Japa- 
nese-American relations. He con- 
tended that the pact Tokyo recent- 
ly signed with Nanking (Wang 
Ching-wei’s Japan-sponsored gov- 
ernment) did not represent the ulti- 
mate terms of peace between Japan 
and China, 


A Remarkable Admission. 


Perhaps the most remarkable ad- 
mission to come out of the bristly 
mustached little minister was that 
he and Premier Fumimaro Konoye 
were working with a minority 
against powerful forces of “con- 
quest and exploitation” in Japan 
itself. It is easy to guess those he 
meant, He said: 

“What Japan is doing in China 
looks like conquest. I admit it. 
But, as you know, we are fighting 
in Japan itself against such no- 
tions of conquest and oppression. 

“I am in that minority group. 
Some Americans think we are not 
sincere. I do not blame them. They 
are thousands of miles away, from 
where it is difficult to judge. We 
have many men in Japan who have 
those Western ideas of greed, ex- 
ploitation and conquest.” 

Which makes one wonder wheth- 
er Matsuoka is a voice crying in 
the wilderness. He said he hated 
bureaucracy, hated old-fashioned 
diplomacy, He seemed to prove it 
in perhaps the most unconvention- 
al interview ever given by any 
Japanese Foreign Minister. 


NAZIS EXECUTE SHELTER THIEF

The Rumanian Government asserted

lei in the garden of the Bucharest 
home of Rudolph Lupescu, brother 
of Magda Lupescu, friend of exiled 
King Carol. 
(Rumania currency is not quoted 
in New York markets, but on the 
basis of the latest available fig- 
ures-the amount would be between 
$20,000 and $30,000.) 

An investigation of the source of 
the Lupescu family income was 
started by the Government shortly 
after Mme. Lupescu fled with Carol 


to Spain.

LEADING IN WAR 
ON ‘HAVE’ NATIONS 
AMONG WHICH I 
AUCH AMERICA 


Fuehrer, Addressing 12,000 
at Arms Plant, Tells 
Them to ‘Work and Be 
Patient,’ Warning Against 
Hope of a Quick Peace. 


A partial text of Hitler’s speech 
is on Page 9A. 


By LOUIS P. LOCHNER 

BERLIN, Dec. 10 (AP).—Adolf 
Hitler, addressing munitions work- 
ers against a background of shin- 
ing new cannon barrels, told Ger- 
many today “we will defeat the 
entire world.” 

The Fuehrer bitterly pictured 
Germany as the champion of lahor 
and “the have-nots” in a war be- 


tween “two worlds’; a war be- 
tween “the haves”—among whom 
he placed “rich America”—and the 
“have-nots”; a war between capital 
and labor. 

Essentially, his speech was a 
rousing pep talk to German work- 
ers and its main burden seemed to 
be “work and be patient.” He 
warned against hope for a quick 
peace. 

Besides 12,000 cheering workers 
in the Borsig munitions plant in 
Berlin, Hitler’s audience included 
radio listeners in all the Nazi-con- 
quered countries of Europe and in 
Italy, Hungary and Slovakia... The 
name of the plant was withheld at 
first for military reasons. 


Appears Confident. 


Hitler was calm.. His remarks 
were spririkled with the usual num- 
ber of barbed witticisms which 
brought applause and heils. 

Opening his attack on the “haves,” 
the Fuehrer referred acidly to “we 
English, we Americans, we 
French... .°." . 

And to a long burst of applause, 
he declared that “now again, I en- 
ter the fight as the representative 
of the have-nots.” 

He spoke of “so-called democracy 
- « « rule by the people. . 

“One might suppose that in lands 
of freedom and democracy every- 
body lived in plenty. The contrary 
is true. Nowhere is the standard 
of the masses lower. « ich 
America has 12 to 13 million unem- 
ployed annually.” 

(A radio version of Hitler’s 
speech, heard in New York by the 
Columbia JBroadcasting System, 
said he pictured “this rich Amer- 
ica,” along with Britain and 
France, as “democracies based on 
lies.” National Broadcasting Co. 
heard this passage: “And in these 
countries, let me ask you, who are 
the persons who own thi: terri- 
tory of the world’s surface? They 


are the people who control the 
wealth of those nations. They are 
the people who decide on the des- 
tinies of thos: who labor for 
them.”) 
“We Preferred Common Sense.” 
Hitler argued in one place that 
Germany was in a war which was 
forced on it—“we preferred com-

50,000 RESERVE OFFICERS 
TO BE ON ACTIVE DUTY BY 

JUNE 30, ARMY INDICATES 

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. 

HE War Department an- 
T nouncea today that it now 

appeared that it would be 
necessary to order about 20,000 
additional reserve officers to 
extended active duty before next 
June 30. 

By the end of this month, the 
army said it expected to have 
almost 30,000 reserve officers on 
active duty as a result of the 
expansion of the nation’s land 
forces. 

“In view of the constantly 
changing situation,” the depart- 
ment said, “it appears to be im- 
practicable to give individual 
reserve officers .definite infor- 
mation as to the exact dates 
they will be called for active 
duty. However, all corps area 
and department commanders 
and chiefs of branches, have 
been directed to provide reserve 
officers under their jurisdiction

possible,” |

Athens’ Forces Driving 
Toward Elbasani —Gain 
Also Claimed in South 
Along Coastal Road Run- 
ning to Port of Valona. 


ATHENS, Dec. 10 (AP).—Greek 
forces were reported today to have 
captured important. new positions 
after inflicting heavy losses on 
units of the Ninth Italian Division 
in a hand-to-hand battle, 

This, apparently, was in the 
northern sector of the Albanian 
front, where the whole region 
around Lake Oehrida was said to 
have been cleaned up and the pace 
of the Greek drive generally ac- 
celerated, It is aimed at Elbasani, 
25 miles from Tirana, Albania’s 
capital. 

On the southern sector also, the 
Italians were said to be retiring 
steadily toward Chimara, with the 
Greeks pressing hard on their 
heels toward the port of Valona. 


Communique Reports Gains. 


Today’s Greek high command 
communique declared tersely “we 
have advanced further,” and a 
spokesman filled in these details: 

“The entire army of the Italians’ 
right wing was withdrawing Mon- 
day toward the north and north- 
west of Port Edda and Argyrocas- 
tro, while its rear guard was ha- 
rassed and pursued by our advanc- 
ing troops. 

“More to the north the enemy 
has been compelled, after a fierce 
attack by our troops, to abandon 
important strategic positions and 
withdraw in full flight. Still more 
to the north, units of our army 
have been able to dislodge the en- 
emy’s forces which until Sunday 
stubbornly . defended .peaks and 
heights very important from a stra- 
tegic viewpoint. 

“These forces were obliged not 
only to retreat but to take to flight. 


If these forces have been able to 


avoid annihilation it will be due to 
bad weather which has prevailed. 

“Still more to the north other 
units of the enemy also are in 
flight.” 


Advance in Two Drives. 


The Greek advance apparently 
is divided into two double-pronged 
drives. 

In the southern sector Greeks, 
chorusing “On to Valona,” are re- 
ported converging on that port 
along the coastal road from Porto 
Edda, by way of Chimara, d 
along an inland road north from 
Argyrocastro, by way of Tepeleni. 
The Greeks apparently have not 
yet taken Chimara and Tepeleni. 

In the northern sector drives to- 
ward Elbasani are aimed along a 
mountain road north and west from 
Pogradetz and up the Devol River 
Valley northwest of Moskopolis. 

The British Royal Air force is- 
sued a communique at Athens say- 
ing British flyers carried out an 
“offensive in the vicinity of Va- 
lona,” where bombs hit “the south 
jetty and buildings near the har- 
bor.” The communique said there 
was no [Italian fighter opposition 
and all the R. A. F. planes returned 
safely. 

The Greek Home Security Minis- 
try announced no raids were made 
on Greece yesterday. 

King George yesterday congratu- 


ilated Greek commanders and sol- 


diérs, asserting he was “full of joy 
for the occupation of Argyrocastro 
and proud of the new brilliant vic- 
tories of my army.” Occupation of 
Argyrocastro Sunday was a “victory 
both of great military and moral 
importance,” he said.

BRITISH HANG TWO 
AS GERMAN SPE 
FIRST OF THE WAR 


Pair Accused of Sending 
Out Military Information 
on Portable Radio Trans- 


mitter. 


LONDON, Dec. 10 (AP).—Two 
men were hanged at Pentonville 
prison today as German spies. 


The official announcement iden- 
tified them as Jose Waldberg, 25 
years old, a German citizen born 
at Mainz, and Karl Meier, 24, a 
Dutch subject of German origin 
born at Koblenz. It said they had 
been arrested soon after they ar- 
rived in England, but the date was 
not given. It was the first an- 
nouncement since the war started 
that spies had been executed in 
Britain. 

The two German agents, con- 
victed Nov. 22 under the civilian 
Treachery Act, were accused of 
haviing a radio transmitter which 
they erected in secluded spots in 
the countryside at night. The men, 
British authorities said, apparently 
had instructions to pose as refu- 
gees from German-occupied terri- 
tory and to move about the coun- 
try, picking up whatever military 
information they could. 

They were said to have been sup- 
plied with large sums of money, 
all in pound notes. 

The official announcement said 
the men had been led to believe 
they would be relieved shortly by 
invading German troops. 

Their transmitting apparatus, 
the court was told, was of excep- 
tionally light weight, being carried 
in two black bags similar to cam- 
era cases. The whole set was of 
German manufacture and was 
equipped so that transmitting 
wave-lengths could be changed,

CAIRO, Egypt, Dec. 10 (AP).— 
Latest reports from the western 
desert today said the British had 
cut the Italian main line of com- 
munication and had isolated a large 
number of troops in a wide encir~ 
cling movement. 

The British, the reports said, pen- 
etrated the Italian positions pro- 
tecting the land approaches to Sidi 
Barrani and pushed on toward the 
coast. (In London Prime Minister 
Churchill said the British had 
reached the coast west of Sidi Bar- 
rani.) 

Their encircling movement, these 
reports said, engulfed a number of 
small camps in addition to the 
principal camp at Sidi Barrani, and 
they took 4000 prisoners, a large 
number of tanks and trucks, and 
were still cleaning up small isolated 
concentrations of Italians. 

The Italians were said to be re- 
sisting strongly at some points but 
the British were holding the initia- 
tive throughout. 

Bright moonlight helped the Brit- 
ish last night as they brought up 
supplies and strengthened their po- 
sitions before resuming the attack 
at dawn with the support of the 
Royal Air Force, the reports said, 

All through yesterday, R. A. F. 
bombers hammered at Marshal Ro- 
dolfo Graziani’s rear positions, at- 
tacking every airdrome in the west- 
ern desert and in Libya. 

‘A communique said “immense 
damage” was done in these attacks 
on airdromes, and added that the 
flyers paused only to refuel at their 
bases. Other aircraft ranged far 
and wide over the whole area of 
operations, attacking enemy col- 
umns and motor transport in the 
coastal sector and covering the 
new road from Sidi Barrani to 
Bardia, in Libya, over which Grazi- 
ani must send reinforcements, 


CHURCHILL TELLS 
Of 75-MILE DRIVE 


LONDON, Dec. 10 (AP).—Brit- 
isi forces, on the offensive in 
Egypt, have raced 75 miles to 
cut between two important Italian 


positions in the western desert, it 
was officially disclosed today. 

Prime Minister Winston 
Churchill, formally announcing the 
offensive to the House of Com- 
mons, said that British units 
have reached the Med'terranean 
Coast after penetrating Italian lines 
between the Italian bases of Sidi 
Barrani and Buqbugq, roughly 70 
miles and 35 miles, respectively, 
inside the Egyptian-Libyan fron- 
tier.

It was the first official report on

was that the Idarwald had been 
torpedoed, but the United States 
version was that it had been board-

There was no word from the 


6031-ton German freighter Rhein, 


which left Tampico with the Idar- 
wald to make a dash across the 
Atlantic. 

In a previous attempt to run the 
British blockade, four 
ships, including the Idarwald and 


the Rhein, sailed from Tampico. 
One of the vessels, the Phrygia, 
was scuttled by its crew when a 
warship was sighted, and the other 


three fled back to harbor. 

The Admiralty announced 13 mer- 
chant ships totaling 52,229 tons 
were sunk by “enemy” action in 
the week ended Dec, 1, compared 
with a weekly average of 65 weeks 
of war of about 62,000 tons. The 
latest report included nine British 
ships totaling 41,360 tons, three Al- 
lied ships totaling 5734 tons and 
one neutral ship of 5135 tons. 

It was pointed out the Germans 
gaid they sank 227,500 tons of ship-

BRITISH CRUISER 
REPAIRED, SAILS 


MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, Dec. 
10 (AP).—The Carnarvon Castle, 
British shell-battered, 20, 122-ton 
auxiliary cruiser, sailed at 4:45 p. 
m. today for an undisclosed desti- 
nation. 

Repairs apparently were com- 
pleted after a British Legation 
spokesman said permission might 
be sought for the battle-damaged 
cruiser to remain here . another 
day. A storm which swept the 
coast this morning had delayed the 
work. 

The spokesman added the Lega- 
tion had no word of the fate of the 
German raider which fought the 
cruiser off the Brazilian coast 
Dec. 5. 

“The raider which the Carnarvon 
Castle met is not the only one of 
its kind in the Atlantic Ocean,” 
one official said. “There may be 
as many as four or five of these 
well-equipped raiders out stalking 
merchantmen. It is going to take 
a special squadron like ‘that which 
destroyed the German raiding 
cruisers in the last war to handle 
those fellows.” 

The Government, meanwhile, 
studied a note delivered by Ger- 
man Minister Otto Langmann pro- 
testing against a 24-hour extension 
of the 48-hour time limit originally 
get for repairs by Uruguay.

BERLIN, Dec. 10 (AP).—The

submarine today with sinking two 
armed British merchantmen total- 
ing 14,500 tons and reported that a 
Nazi surface warship, “operating 
overseas,” had increased its toll of 
British and Allied shipping to more

ry. 
‘Then he added that since 


alty, of course, in consultation with

Still Silent on War Aims. 
Churchill declined again to give 
a statement of British war aims. 
William Gallacher, the only Com- 
munist member of Commons, as- 
serted that “the imperial policy 
group . . . is proposing a new or- 
der in Europe which will be dom- 
inated by the pound sterling and 
the dollar.” 
“There are such a lot of new 
orders in Europe,” Churchill re- 
plied, “that I really have to confine 
myself more directly to immediate 
business.” 
Oliver Edwin Simmons, Conserva- 
tive, and Austin Hopkinson, Inde- 
pendent, decried the “continued 
suggestions for dismemberment of 
the k. A, F.,” and the latter asked 
for immediate steps to end “news- 
paper intrigue in this connection, 
and particularly those newspapers 
controlled by Lord Beaverbrook.” 
(Lord Beaverbrook is Minister of 
Aircraft Production. His chief pa- 
per is the Daily Express.) 
Churchill replied to this: 
“I cannot exercise any control 
over the press other than that 
which is well known to the House 
under the existing war conditions.” 
Churchill and Cabinet Control. 
Hopkinson pursued the matter, 
asking whether the Prime Minister 
could not “exercise any control over 
his colleagues in the Cabinet.” 
There was an outburst of laugh- 
ter, and Churchill retorted: “Yes, 
I think I can.” 
“The last thing wanted,” Church- 
ill said, “is an inter-service contro- 
versy” (such as splitting up the 
R. A. F. might engender). 
Laborite William J. Thorne asked 
assurance that “the shipyards all 
over the country are being fully 
employed” and A. U. M. Hudson, 
Civil Lord of the Admiralty, re- 
plied, “I think that is so.” 
Ronald Cross, Shipping Minister, 
‘informed the House that “every pos- 
sibility” of utilizing Danish ships, 
immobilized in neutral ports, was 
being explored. 

Sir Kingsley Wood announced the 
compulsory war risks insurance bil] 
would be published tomorrow. 

Text of Statement. 
Churchill began his statement to 
Commons with a review of the cam- 
paign in Africa. The text follows: 
“Some months ago the collapse 
of France seriously endangered our 
position in the Mediterranean and 
made the task of defending Egypt 
from an Italian invasion one of 
extreme difficulty, the more so as 
we were compelled to face the 
menace of invasion ourselves at 
home. 

“However, by the time the Secre- 
tary of State for War paid his im- 
portant visit to the Middle East in 
October, reinforcements of men 
and material had reached Sir 
Archibald Wavell, commanding the 
British and imperial army of the 
Nile, sufficient not only to give a 
greater feeling of security, but to 
open the possibility of an assump- 
tion of the offensive. 

“However, at this moment the 
Italian invasion of Greece made it 
necessary for us to send a consid- 
erable part of our air force from 
Egypt to the aid of the Greek army 
in their heroic defense of their 
native land. The part played by 
the R, A. F. in the Greek victories 
has been most important and we 
have received the warmest expres- 
sions of gratitude from the Greek 
King and the Government for the

BRITONS WARNED AGAINST 
SMALL PARACHUTE BOMB, 
NEW-TYPE NAZI WEAPON 


LONDON, Dec. 10 (AP). 


EWSPAPERS warned their 
N readers today to beware of 

a new-type German air wéa- 
pon—a parachute bomb. 

The bomb, the papers ex- 
plained, is a “dark gray-green 
metal object about the size of 
your gas mask container—mere- 
ly handling it may cause it to ex- 
plode.” 

Such bombs do not always ex- 
plode when they strike the 
ground, articles continued, 
but when they do explode they 
have such a high degree of frar- 
mentation that they can cause 
casualties as far as 50 feet 
away. 

The bomb itself was described 
as a sheet metal cylinder with a 
wire about five inches long at- 
tached. The cylinder is so built 
as to spring open as the bomb 
falls. Two parts form a rough, 
metal parachute and other parts 
operate as vanes which rotate 
se bomb as it rushes through 
the air, bringing the fuse into 
action, 


aid we were able to give. 
“Serious temporary diminuition 
of our air forces in Egypt made 
it necessary somewhat to delay the 
execution of the offensive plans 
which had been matured and it was 
not until the beginning of this 
month that our air force in Egypt 
was, once again, in a position to 
afford the necessary support to a 
forward movement. 
“Accordingly, on the night of Dec. 
7, a strong detachment from the 
Army of the Nile, under Sir Mait- 
land Wilson, comprising British 
and Imperial troops and a detach- 
ment from the Free French forces, 
advanced toward positions which 
the Italians had fortified since their 
incursion across the Egyptian fron- 
tier three months ago. 
“It will be realized that the oper- 
ation of advancing, almost in a 
single bound, across 75 miles of 
desert is by no means free from 
hazard and complexity when con- 
siderable forces are employed. 
“It was with satisfaction that His 
Majesty’s Government learned that 
this long and rapid approach had 
been successfully accomplished. 
Italian Positions Attacked. 
“Yesterday morning, the 9th, our 
forces came into contact with the 
enemy at various points over a 
wide front stretching from Sidi 
Barrani, on the coast, into the des- 
ert, 
“An attack was delivered against 
the positions on the Italian center 
to the southward of Sidi Barrani. 
“In the first defended area which 
was assaulted and overrun, 500 
prisoners and some war material 
fell into our hands. The Italian 
General in command was _ killed 
and his second in command was 
captured. 
“Later in the day, a further ad- 
vance was made into the second 
and stronger and more important 
position nearer to the coast and 
more prisoners and material were 
taken. 
“Other British forces also 
reached the coast between Sidi 
Barrani and Bugqbuq, making fur- 
ther captures of transport and 
prisoners. 
“It is too soon to attempt to 
forecast either the scope or the 
result of the considerable opera- 
tions which are in progress, but we 
can, at any rate, say that the pre- 
ong acd phase has been success-

and the R. A. F. are, of course, co-

“British warships have bombard- 
ed the various coastal positions in- 
volved in the fight, including par- 
ticularly Maktila and Sidi Barrani. 
Some details of the air action have 
been received. 
“On the 8th, a heavy attack was 
made by our bombers on the air- 
drome at Bengasi where about 25 
tons of bombs were dropped ef- 
fectively on hangars and among 
aircraft. 
“On the same night air attacks 
were made on the Italian advanced 
airdromes as a preluds to:the morn- 
ing’s action and throughout yes- 
terday our bombers continually 
harassed the Italian advance air- 
dromes, while our fighter aircraft, 
in which Hurricane squadrons are

TRYING TO C 
SLACKER. MONEY 
BY TAXABLE NOTE 


$500,000,000 Issue, First 
of Its Kind, Designed to 
Enlist Investors in Pre- 


paredness Drive. 


WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 (AP).— 
The Government invited investors 
today to enlist in the national pre- 
paredness drive by subscribing to 
a fully-taxable $500,000,000 issue of 
defense notes—the first wholly tax- 


able Federal issue in United States 
history. 
“People who have the money 
should be delighted to pay taxes 
when the money goes for national 
defense,” said Secretary of the 
Treasury Morgenthau. 
He characterized tax-exempt 
bonds as “slacker money” at a press 
conference yesterday and said it 
was unfair for a “man who owns 
$1,000,000 in tax-free obligations to 
spend his winter in Palm Beach 
and make no contribution to pay 
for national defense, while we ask 
our boys to work eight to 12 hours 
a day in army camps for $30 a 
MOORtE. . 4s 
“We feel that we should draft all 
money—that is, that all money 
should pay taxes toward the de- 
fense program.” 
Issue Only a Starter. 
Emphasizing that he spoke for 
President Roosevelt, Morgenthau 
said the half-billion dollars in notes 
to be offered tomorrow was only a 
starter in the program of making 
Government securities subject to 
full taxation. 
Congress, he said, will be asked 
for authority to lift the tax-emp- 
tion clause from all future Federal 
bond issues, including United States 
savings bonds and Government- 
guaranteed obligations. 
Further, the Treasury will seek 
congressional permission to begin 
a nationwide campaign to sell 
“baby bonds” in denominations as 
small as $5—possibly even to sell 
bond stamps at 25 cents each, as 
was done in World War days. 
He nodded approval to a sugges- 
tion that the bond-selling drive re- 
vive the 1917 practice of encour- 
aging pretty girls to give away 
kisses to the bond-buyers. 
While full details of tomorrow’s 
$500,000,000 issue were not dis- 
closed, the tax exemption was to be 
lifted on the five-year obligations 
under a 23-year-old law applying 
only to'notes. The states as well 
as the Federal Government will be 
allowed to levy taxes on the inter- 
est. 
Morgenthau said his proposal to 
lift the restriction on all Govern- 
ment obligations already had _ re- 
ceived “an encouraging reception” 
among Democratic members of 
Congress. 
He estimated that 2,500,000 per- 
sons now hold United States sav- 
ings bonds and he said he would 
like to double or triple that num- 
ber. 
“We have to raise an awful lot 
of money,” he said, “and I want ag 
many people as possible to take 
part in raising it.” 


U. S. Government Bonds Move to 
Record Highs. 

NEW YORK, Dec. 10 (AP).— 
United States Government bonds 
promptly moved to record highs 
today after the announcement at 
Washington yesterday that the 
Treasury would confine its De- 
cember financing operations to sale 
of fully-taxable $500,000,000 nation- 
al defense notes. 

Early dealings in Treasury obli- 
gations resulted in gains ranging 
from 62 cents to $4.37 per $1000 
bond. State and municipal bonds 
likewise were sought by investors.

ister said, “to attempt to forecast 
either the scope or the result of the 
considerable operations which are 
in progress. But we can at any 
rate say that the preliminary phase 
has been successful.” 

The House cheered wildly as he 
concluded his report with the state- 
ment: 


“We shall no doubt receive fur- 
ther news shortly.” 


Churchill said the British Med- 
iterranean fleet and the air force 
“are, of course, co-operating close- 
ly with the army,” and added that 
British warships have bombarded 
the various coastal positions of the 
Italian forces, particularly Maktila 
and Sidi Barrani. 


London newspapers printed re- 
ports of the engagement ufider ban- 
ner headlines and speculated on the 
possibility of a full-fledged British 
offensive in North Africa timed to 
coincide with Italian ..ifficulties on 
the Greek war front. 


“The news suggests that Gen. Sir 
Archibald Wavell (British Near 
East commander) and Lieut.-Gen. 
Wilson judge the time has come 
to test not only the material 
strength of the enemy, but his 
moral strength as well,” declared 
the News Chronicle. 


It said the recent shake-up in the 
Italian general staff “must have 
had considerable effect on the en- 
my, and it is reasonable to suppose 
that Wilson has ordered British ad- 
vance elements to take the offens- 
ive in order to discover to what 
extent Italian morale has fallen and 
by how much their powers of re- 
sistance have waned.” 

The military correspondent for 
Reuters, news agency, said cau- 


it is premature to discuss ultimate 
possibilities. He recalled, however, 
guarded statements by War Secre- 
tary Anthony Eden upon his return 
from Egypt recently to the effect 
that when operations in Egypt 
started, they would sesolve them- 
selves into “a fierce struggle on a 
wide front.” The correspondent 
suggested that “that fight has now 
begun.” 

No indication of the number of 
troops involved in yesterday’s fight- 
ing was given. It has been esti- 
mated, however, the Italians have 
six divisions—72,000 to 90,000 men— 
available for fighting on the north- 
ern Egyptian front. 

The Italians have been inactive 
on the Egyptian front since they 
penetrated to Sidi Barrani last 
September. The British, meanwhile, 
have been busy strengthening their 
defenses and improving communi- 
cations lines. 

For weeks British armored units 
have been probing Italy’s defenses, 
even employing camels in one ex- 
tended operation deep into Italian 
Libyan sands. 


ITALIAN AIR RAID

MISTRAL DECLARE 
N BOY'S MURDER CAS 


Jury Dismissed Because Mem- 
bers Had Read of Delinquen- 
cy of William Fuller. 


A mistrial was deciared today by 
Circuit Judge John J. Wolfe at 
Clayton in the case of 15-year-old 
William Louis Fuller III, charged 
with the murder of Ruth Gornek, 
on the ground that members of the 
jury panel had read newspaper 


stories which told of the boy’s pre- 
vious delinquency. 

No testimony had been heard in 
the case, but the jury panel of 30 
had been selected. Before court 
convened this morning, Amandus 
Brackman and J. C. Hoester Jr., 
court-appointed defense counsel, 
conferred with Judge Wolfe in 
chambers. 

When Judge Wolfe took the 
bench he asked the veniremen, 
who had not been locked up for 
the night, if they had read news- 
paper accounts of the start of the 
trial. About 20 out of the 30 raised 
their hands. The newspaper stories 
had pointed out that young Fuller, 
who had admitted and then denied 
killing the Gornek girl, had a de- 
linquency record dating back té 
1933. 

Judge Wolfe reset the case for 
trial on Jan, 20.

SUGAR HEIR ACCUSES 
WIFE OF PRO-NAZISM 


Adolph B. Spreckels Replies to 
Divorce Suit Charge That He 
Supported Hitler’s Cause. 


SANTA BARBARA, Cal, Dec. 10 
(AP).—Charges of pro-Nazi activ- 
ity in the Adolph B. Spreckels 
household were made yesterday by 
both parties to a divorce suit. 

Spreckels, heir to millions made 
in Hawaiian sugar, Steamship lines 
and Pacific Coast hotel and realty 
operations, accused his wife of 
keeping a statuette of Hitler in her 


home before their marriage. 

Emily Hall Spreckels, in her di- 
vorce suit filed Sept. 6, charged 
that Spreckels’ exhibitions of sup- 
port for the Nazi cause—particu- 
larly the display of a Nazi flag on 
the table at a New York cafe— 
“publicly insulted and embar- 
rassed” her. She asked for $2500 a 
month alimony. 

In his answer yesterday, Spreck- 
els said the pro-Nazi accusation 
against him was an attempt of his 
wife to “whitewash” her own pro- 
German leanings, when she was 
the wife of the late Baron von 
Romberg. 

Spreckels charged that during 
1934 the Baroness entertained the 
German Prince Louis Ferdinand, 
grandson of the former Kaiser 
Wilhelm, and with the Prince and 
her then husband discussed the 
possibility of Von Romberg obtain- 
ing a prominent position in Hit- 
ler’s Government. 

Spreckels said further that in 
1938 the Baroness entertained’ at 
her Montecito home Brunninghau- 
sen, the German actress, Leni Rei- 
fenstahl, a friend of Hitler, and 
later entertained others connected 
with “the German Government or 
the German Embassy at Washing- 
ton.” . 

Spreckels said his wife named 
her dog Swastika, gave him a 
bracelet with a swastika engraved 
on it on the day of their marriage, 
and erected a swastika—which he 
later removed—outside their home. 
Her activities were such, he added, 
that she was investigated by the 
Department of Justice last April 
“for pro-German activities.” 

He added that she was wealthy 
in her own right and had no need 
for the amount of alimony de- 
manded. Their marriage at Reno, 
in April, 1939, was his fourth, her 
second.

| Tells Agricultural Conven- 


tion of Wealth Is Phase 
of U. S. Program. 


BALTIMORE, Dec. 10 (AP), — 
President Roosevelt declared today 
that effective rearmament of the 
nation requires, in addition to mo- 
bilization of men and munitions, 


“an equitable distribution of the 
wealth from our unparalleled re- 
sources, help for the wunderpriv- 
ileged, security for workers and 
farmers and whatever else that is 
necessary to keep democracy a 
dynamic force.” 

This statement was made in a 
presidential message read before 
the convention of the American 
Farm Bureau Federation. The 
convention was considering new 
proposals designed to give farmers 
a larger share of the national in- 
come. 

Roosevelt told the 4000 farmer- 
delegates that the second World 
War, like the first, was having an 
injurious effect on the economy of 
the world. 

“But out of this war already has 
emerged,” he said, “a clearer real- 
ization of the value of democracy 
and the danger to it is from un- 
bridled force and aggression. Using 
the democratic processes, this na- 
tion is arming to preserve freedom 
and to see to it that the enslave- 
ment of millions of human beings 
will pass like the nightmare that 
it is.” 

The President said the country, 
in this crisis, could count on the 
federation and farmers’ every- 
where. 

Meanwhile, federation officers 
claimed support in high adminis- 
tration quarters for a revision of 
Federal farm programs under 
which crop prices would be pegged 
at higher levels and parity pay- 
ments would be eliminated. 

Chester A. Davis, member of the 
National Defense Advisory Com- 
mission, asked the farmers to for- 
get their “prejudices” against Latin 
American agricultural imports in 
the interest of “total defense” 
against European dictatorships. 

The “colossal horror that is 
astride the world,” he declared in 
a speech, requires sacrifices of all 
groups in a mobilization program 
to make the Western Hemisphere 
“entirely unassailable.” . 

“Farmers will have their own 
and very serious adjustments to 
make,” Davis said. “Defense needs 
may require that domestic produc- 
tion be supplemented by increased 
imports, as we see happening in 
the case of some grades of wool. 

“Co-operation with Latin Amer- 
ica may require farmers to re- 
examine most critically some of 
their traditional patterns and prej- 
udices.”

tive on the defense commission,

All Interference With Pro- 
duction Outlawed in 
Union Agreement With 
Wright Concern, 


PATERSON, N. J + Dec. 10-(AP). 
—Company and union spokesmen 
hailed today as “the most compre- 
hensive agreement ever negotiated 
in aviation history” a labor con- 
tract whereby “all strikes, _ sit- 
downs, Slow-downs, stay-ins, or 
curtailment, or interference with 
production are outlawed” at the 
Wright Aeronautical Corporation 
plant. 

Myron B. Gordon, vice-president 
and general manager of the huge 
airplane. motor manufacturing 
plant, .and William H. Showers, 
president of the Wright Aeronau- 
tical Employes’ Association, an 
independent union claiming repre- 
sentation of a majority of the 16,- 
000 plant workers, announced the 
signing of the agreement last night 
in a joint statement. 

Under the terms, wage increases 
will boost the annual payroll from 
$22,000,000 to $23,500,000. The pact 
is effective Dec. 15 for an unan- 
nounced period. 

Provisions include a basic 7 per 
cent wage increase, with a contin- 
uation of the 10 per cent premium 
for workers on night shifts; senior- 
ity clauses, vacations with pay, 
time and one-half for overtime, 
and double time for Sundays and 
Holidays. 

Holders of large Government de- 
fense contracts, the Wright.corpo- 
ration has expanded local opera- 
tions to include five factories in 
nearby East Paterson and Fair 
Lawn, and three in Paterson.. Be- 
fore the defense program started, 
the company had only one plant 
here, employing about 3000 per- 
sons. 

The Gordon-Showers statement 
referred to the contract as “an ex- 
ample of what can be accomplished 
by peaceful negotiations.” 

In addition to outlawing inter- 
ference with the defense program 
the contract provides that “all ma- 
jor grievances must be submitted 
to impartial arbitration.” In this 
connection, the statement said a 
clause provided that the side seek- 
ing arbitration could petition a 
member of the Court of Errors and 
Appeals, New Jersey’s highest 
tribunal, to select an arbiter. 


WOMAN AND DAUGHTER SHOT 
AT MISSOURI FARM HOME 


Son-in-Law Surrenders After 
Wounding Two in Dispute Over 
His Wife’s Belongings. 

Special to the Post-Dispatch. 

PARIS, Mo., Dec. 10.—Mrs.,Harry 
Turnbaugh, 53 years old, farm wife, 
and her daughter, Mrs. Garnet 
Shuster, were shot today by Mrs. 
Turnbaugh’s son-in-law, Charles 
Wells, truck driver of Kirksville, 
following an argument over belong- 
ings of Mrs. Wells. Mrs. Turn- 
baugh is in grave condition. Mrs. 
Shuster was less seriously wounded. 

According to officers, Wells spent 
the night in woods near the Turn- 
baugh home and early today went 
there to demand Mrs. Wells’ be- 
longings. In the argument that 
developed Wells drew a revolver 
and shot both women. Helen Turn- 
baugh, younger daughter of Mrs. 
Harry Turnbaugh, escaped injury 
by rolling from her bed onto the 
floor. 

Wells surrendered to a Justice 
of the Peace. 


Dr. Percy H. Swahlen, noted ob- 
stetrician and gynecologist, former 
president of St. Louis Medical So- 


ciety, died in his sleep early today 
at St. Ann’s Maternity Hospital, 
where he was chief of staff and 


years. 

He was 63 years old and had 
beén in ill health several years, 
but seemed refreshed in the last 
few weeks since he took a holiday 
for the Northwestern-Notre Dame 
football game Nov. 23 in Chicago. 
Characteristically, he made it a 
holiday also for his brother, W. 
Ben Swahlen of Webster Groves, 
and for 10 physicians with whom 
he had long been associated. 

“I should like you to do me a 
great favor,” was his preface to the 
invitation telephoned to them. He 
had engaged a special Pullman car 
of private compartments, rooms at 
the Knickerbocker, a table at Ire- 
land’s for dinner after the game. 
There his guests gave him a gold 
watch, “To dear old Percy—.” It 
was an occasion of chuckles and 
reminiscences, and yet, one said 
today, it wore for each of them a 
shade of fatewell. 

Football “Fan.” 

Dr. Swahlen was a football and 
basefall “fan,” a frequent spectator 
at the Cardinals’ home games, but, 
an associate related, never took a 
vacation until his health began to 
fail. “My patients don’t want me 
to go away,” he would explain. 

Lately, however, he had traveled 
to Europe, Honolulu, South Amer- 
ica. A bachelor, he arranged his 
holidays for the companionship 
of his brother and sister, Mrs. J. P. 
Allen of Greencastle, Ind., and their 
families. 

“Chief speaker at any dinner he 
attended,” as one associate put it, 
he did not hesitate to break any 
engagement for a patient’s sake. 
In addition to his responsibilities 
at St. Ann’s, he was on the staffs 
of St. John’s, Desloge, Deaconess, 
DePaul and Homer G. Phillips hos- 
pitals and professor of obstetrics 
at St. Louis University, where he 
had been on the faculty since 1908. 

Opens With Story. 

His father, Fletcher W. Swahlen, 
was professor of Greek at De Pauw 
University in Greencastle. Dr. 
Swahlen, born in Lebanon, IIL. took 
his pre-medical work at De Pauw 
and came here to Marion Sims 
Medical College, now St. Louis 
Louis University Medical School. 

Obtaining his M. D. in 1903, he 
spent two years’ internship at City 
Hospital and went to Berlin for 
two years’ post-graduate training 
in obstetrics. On his return, he 
became the first resident physician 
at St. Ann’s, where his uncle, the 
late Dr. Benjamin Hypes, was chief 
of staff. 

There the Sisters of Charity of 
St. Vincent de Paul “would have 
spoiled him terribly,” one of the 
sisters admitted today, “if he had 
been anyone who could be spoiled.” 
They and nurses alike, and partic- 
ularly Sister Mary Joseph, who has 
been at, the hospital 52 years, wait- 
ed on him “hand and foot.” 

He kept meticulous records, and 
frequently worked over them until 
two or three hours after midnight. | 
Then he would order breakfast be- 


had been resident physician 33}.

While he had an office suite on 
the first floor, his living quarters 
were simple to the point of bare-

He opened last night's staff 
meeting with a story, and before 
the chuckies were stilled, had gone 
on to interchange of: views on cur- 
rent cases, “It’s a wonderful way 
to review medicine,” he concluded. 
“I think all of us picked up a lot 
tonight.” 

After the meeting he met an as- 
sociate downstairs—one of his 
guests on the Chicago holiday— 
to discuss a medical problem on 
which they were engaged. As they 
parted, he wished, “A happy good- 
night.” 

Nurses heard him gasp and hur- 
ried into his quarters a little after 
2 o'clock this morning. He died 
in a few minutes, of coronary 
thrombosis, 

Burial will be at Lebanon, prob- 
ably Thursday afternoon, after fu-

establishment in St. Louis County, 
without an immediate report to the 
Coroner. 

Ambruster and two aids, an as 
sistant funeral director and a 
chauffeur, testified that the Am- 
bruster ambulance picked up Smith 
at 11:10 a. m. and carried him to 
the Frisco Hospital, Kingshighway 
boulevard and Laclede avenue, 
where Smith was pronounced dead 
in the ambulance and removed to 
the Ambruster. Undertaking Coa, 
Ambruster said he called and re- 
ported the death to Quvinn shortly 
before 1 p. m. 

Deputy Coroner Quinn asked Am- 
bruster if he didn’t know it was 
his duty under the law to report 
Smith’s death to the Coroner's of- 
fice at once. Ambruster replied he 
reported it as soon as possible, 

Quinn pointed out that a city 
ambulance could have picked up 
Smith, whose arm was cut off in 
the accident, which occurred when 
he was boarding a.freight car, with- 
in five ‘minutes and might have 
saved his life by quick attention 
at City Hospital, instead of which 
the Ambruster ambulance had to 
make the trip from 6600 west. Am- 
bruster told a reporter he had a 
contract for ambulance service 
with with the Frisco Railroad and 
handled injured railroad employes 
speedily. 

Ambruster and his assistants 
twice ignored notices to appear 
when the’ inquest was set Dec. 4 
and again Dec. 6, Quinn said, and 
they were subpoened today. 


Draftee Lists Cow as Dependent. 

BINGHAMTON, N. Y., Dec. 10 
(AP).—Officials of a Binghamton 
draft board puzzled today over 
whether a cow could properly be 
classified as a dependent. One 
rural registrant returned his ques- 
tionnaire and listed his mother as 
first dependent and his cow as sec- 


ond. He had to furnish hay for 
the cow, the youth explained.

‘ltime he indicated that Naziism 
‘ilong had pointed to overthrowing 


Versailles treaty—“I said this 


ue iy ‘even when I was still a soldier.” 


The Fuehrer reasserted his con- 


“4 fidence that nothing in the world 


| = {lghe will sustain harder 
°° | each weapon.” 


-* © “4\eould stop Germany and declared 

2 ithat “once I have decided on my 

-. -*\eourse I am filled with boundless 
+ | fanaticism.” 


“In my lexicon,” he said, “there 


is no such word as capitulation.” 


He opened no new prospects as 


oe to the immediate future except that 
~ -|the fight would continue relentless- 


hy. 


In the war, he said, “we stand 


“|fortified against every eventuality.” 


“England may do what she will— 
hits with 


“Whatever happens,” he added 


28 later, ‘Germany will be victorious.” 


Gibe at Churchill. 
He accused “that great strategist 
Churchill” of deciding to launch 
“unrestricted air warfare” with an 
attack on Freiburg. 

He said, “I didn’t want to attack 
anything except military objec- 
tives,” and added: 

“Tl waited one month for them 
to cease this sort of combat. I 
waited two and three months. But 
now we are conducting war as 
they wanted it.” 

He taunted the British with 
talking “about my missing the bus, 
Well, I got there just long enough 
ahead to climb aboard before the 
British. Wherever the German sol- 
dier stands, nobody else can get.” 

Hitler got a round of applause 
when he said “the time for the 
final struggle is determined by us. 
I am always careful. We might 
have started in the autumn, but I 
wanted better weather. We can 
afford to wait. The German peo- 
ple will appreciate it more if [I 
wait and thereby save lives.” 

“It is a part of the Nazi philo- 
sophy to save human life and un- 
necessary sacrifices,” he continued. 
“We don’t want to make any pres- 
tige attacks. We will be guided 
only by military considerations.” 

“ .. The world must recognize,” 
he said, “that there can be no de- 
feat in Germany, either military or 
economic, due to long duration” of 
the war. 

No Power on earth can remove 
the German armed forces from 
Norway, The Netherlands, Belgium 
or France against their will, he 
shouted, 

Hitler contrasted German Social- 
ism with British, French and Amer- 
ican capitalism in asserting that 
the present conflict was between 
two philosophies of life—that of the 
“haves” and that of “have-nots.” 

The British are fighting, he said, 
because they know defeat would 
spell the defeat of capitalism, of 
family privilege, and of gold. 

The conflict now, he said, is be- 
tween gold and labor—with Ger- 
many representing labor. 


Presented by Goebbels. 

He was introduced by Minister 
of Propaganda Paul Joseph Goeb- 
bels, who said all Germany—and 
especially the workers—were lis- 
tening. The Fuehrer began speak- 
ing at 12:08 p. m. 

“I speak very seldom now,” Hit- 
ler began, “first because I have 
very little time. 

“The struggle 
two worlds. 

“T want first to discuss Western 
Europe. 

“Here we find 85,000,000 Ger- 
mans, 46,000,000 English, 45,000,000 
Italians and 37,000,000 French. 
“Forty six million Englishmen 
control 40,000,000 square kilometers, 
the French only 10,000,000, the Ital- 
ians one-half million, while 85,000,- 
000 Germans have as foundation for 
living only 600,000 square kilom- 
eters.” 

He then traced German history 
from the Thirty Years’ War on- 
ward, stressing what he called dyn- 


is one between 


x astic selfishness and other factors 


which made necessary the bending 
of all energies toward internal af- 
fairs in Germany. 
England’s “Tremendous Empire.” 
Meanwhile, he said, “Britain put 
together a tremendous empire by 
force.” 
“The distribution was undertak- 
en by humans themselves.” 
Italy like Germany was torn with- 
in itself, he said. 
“Rich regions yield better returns 
domestically than poor ones,” he 
continued. “Similarly, internation- 
al possession of rich regions is im- 
portant, 
“Just as within nations too great 
contrasts between rich and poor 
must be adjusted, if necessary by 
force, so also. internationally it 
won't do for a few to have all the 
possessions while others are sup- 
pressed. 
“We tried to solve the problem by 
appeals to common sense. We tried 
to bridge the chasm between those 
who had too much and those with 
too little. 
“The Right to Soil.” 

“The right to live includes the 
right to soil. 

“Bloody sacrifices are better than 
the gradual dying off of nations. 
“When we took over we demand- 
ed first national unity as this was 
necessary for giving us the neces- 
sary strength to satisfy our claims.” 
Old conceptions were  over- 
thrown, state lines were removed 
and Germany, he maintained, was 
swept clean. 
“My second demand,” he said, 
“was the removal of foreign polit- 
ical oppression as exemplified in 
the Versailles treaty whereby, 
among other things, our colonies 
and possessions were taken from 
us. 
“In other words, my second de- 
mand was to fight against Ver- 
sailles. 
“The rest of the world didn’t 
want our national unity, and it 
was determined to continue the 
Versailles system.

ers patently spoke of the ‘haves’

and whoever hasn’t must remain 
satisfied with not having. To 
some, I was the representative of 
the ‘have-nots.’ 

“Now again, I enter the fight 
as the representative of the ‘have- 
nots,’” 

“Tt is interesting to observe,” he 
continued, “the mode of living of 
the rich. They had so-called de- 
mocracy ....- 

“The slogan of liberty really 
means freedom of economy, name- 
ly for everybody to grab for him- 
self without State control. Capital 
first makes the newspapers sub- 
servient. The lord of the so-called 
free press is the man who supplies 
the capital; this press molds public 
opinion, Bhe papers appear accord- 
ing to political parties, but in real- 
ity there is no difference between 
them, 

“There’s no real opposition—the 
opposition really holds the same 
view. 

“Now one might suppose that in 


? lived in plenty. The con- 
trary is true. Nowhere is the 
standard of the masses lower.” 
Only a few hundred capitalists 
rule the world, Hitler asserted. 
“We place our confidence,” he 
said, “in the ability of the German 
people and the intelligence of our 
technicians, chemists, inventors, or- 
ganizers of inventors, etc. 3 

“Our capacity for work is our 
gold, our capital, and with it we 
will defeat the entire world.

The Alton Railroad, CEntral 0500 


| A proposed retirement system for 


thool employes was outlined last 
night to Board of Education mem- 
bers but action on it was deferred 
until actuaries employed by the 


board and by a teachers’ committee}. 


reconciled their differences in the 
cost of the plan. Meanwhile the 
teachers’ committee approved the 
pian in principle as drawn up by 
the board’s actuary. 

The actuaries—E. D. Brown Jr. 
of Chicago, hired by the teachers, 
and George B. Buck of New York, 
employed by the board—will meet 
later this week in New York to 
straighten out their differences on 
the cost of the system. Then a 
special meeting of the School Board 
will be called in about 10 days to 
receive their report. 

Brown said the net cost of the 
retirement system would be about 
$50,000 a year. Buck, on the other 
hand, said: “You've got to make up 
your minds that this will mean an 
increase of $250,000 a year in your 
annual budget. But ultimately I 
don’t believe the retirement system 
will cost you anything.” 

Estimates By Brown. 
Brown estimated there were 335 
employes 68 years old or older in 


}the school system receiving $875,- 


000 a year in salaries. Placed on 
$1000 pensions, they would receive 
$335,000, a saving of $540,000. Re 
placing them with fewer employes 
at beginning wage scales would 
cost $420,000 a year, or a net sav- 
ing of $120,000 which would be 
available for the pension reserve 
fund, Brown estimated. 

Buck challenged the accuracy of 
the estimates because there are now 
118 elderly school employes already 
on part-time service whereas the 
number was somewhat less in June 
when Brown obtained his figures. 
Those on part-time service get 
$1000 to: $1800 a year under the 
temporary retirement system now 
in effect. 

Edward A. Ferrenbach, board 
member, raised the question of 
what might happen to the pension 
system if the 85-cent tax rate were 
not approved by voters every four 
years. In two or three years, the 
board’s $2,000,000 surplus may be 
depleted, he said. If teachers’ sal- 
aries were cut 10 per cent to pro- 
vide funds for the board’s share of 
the retirement cost, then the teach- 
ers would be bearing the entire cost 
since they would already be paying 
. per cent of their salaries. “We're 
worried about our future,” he con- 
tinued. “We're not flush with 
money any more.” 

Under the proposed plan agreed 
to by the teachers, school employes 
would receive pensions of $1200 a 
year for a maximum of 35 years’ 
service. Retirement would be com- 
pulsory at 70, optional at 65. The 
compulsory retirement age would 
be reduced in five years to 65. 
Brown said there should be a pe- 
riod of adjustment so that no em- 
ploye would be forced out of sérv- 
ice immediately. 

Brown estimated the annual cost 
of the retirement system at $280,000 
a year for the first five years, $350,- 
000 a year for the next five years 
and then a peak of $400,000 a year 
for the following five years. After 
that the cost would decline to 
about $255,000 a year, he said. He 
estimated administration costs of 
the system at $12,500 a year. 

The plan would be operated by a 
board of nine trustees, four chosen 
by the School Board, four by em- 
ployes and the ninth named by the 
others. The ninth man would be 
“experienced in the investment of 
money” and would be salaried. 

Funds set up by the retirement 
system would be in the custody of 
the secretary-treasurer of the 
School Board, Philip J. Hickey. 

Om retirement, an employe would 
receive an annuity, which would 
be the equivalent of his accumu- 
lated contributions, and a pension 
equal to 1-140th of his average sal- 
ary in the last 10 years (not over 
$2400 a year) multiplied by the 
number of years in service, but 
not over 35 years. 


School Lunch Fund Donor With- 
draws Claim for Money. 
Mrs. Gerard H. Cox, who gave 
Superintendent of Instruction 
Henry J. Gerling $5000 for needy 
pupils’ lunches which he_ then 
used in speculation, has withdrawn 
her claim for the money on condi- 
tion that the remaining funds be 
used as originally intended, it was 

learned today. 

The gift which was used in 
starting the Children’s Relief Fund, 
has shrunk to $127 in cash and 100 
shares of Holly Sugar stock, worth 
$1000 today, a total of $1127. A 
special meeting of the instruc- 
tion and finance committees of the 
School Board will be held late to- 
day to act on Mrs. Cox’ offer to 
withdraw her claim. 

Gerling, who was ousted as a re- 
sult of his speculation with numer- 
ous secret relief and lunchroom 
funds, used the gift from Mrs. Cox, 
then Mrs. Walter M. Crunden, in 
speculating on margin and making 


learned how the money had been 
used, she demanded the return of 
her money. If approved by the 
board, the $1127 account will be 
transferred now from the Children's 
Relief Fund to the new School |

Increased 


Em- 


a Year, 


St. 


defense program, has resulted in 
an increase of its business from 
$300,000 a year to more than $5; 
000,000, necessitating enlargement 
of its storage space from 260,000/an 
square feet to 1,050,000‘square feet 
and expansion of its payroll from 
60 to 300 employes, Lieut. Col. 
Royal K. Stacey, depot command- 
ing ’ officer, 
Post-Dispatch reporter. 

With removal of the St. Louis 
Quartermaster 
City last month, the medical de- 
pot has overflowed into the 40,000 
square feet formerly used by the 
Quartermaster and in addition has 
leased 750,000 square feet in four 
other St. Louis buildings, 
Col Stacey said. 

Buildings leased for depot ware- 
houses are a six-story structure at 
Second and Ashley streets, former- 
ly a furniture warehouse, contain- 
ing 316,000 square feet; three floors 
of the Mart Building, 401 South 


Twelfth ‘boulevard, 200,000 square 
feet; two floors of the .Columbia 
Terminals warehouse, Fourth and 
"Spruce streets, 100,000 square feet, 
d 125,000 square feet in an un- 
announced location, for which leas- 
ing negotiations are nearly com- 
pleted. 


About 100,000 square feet of the 
building at Second and Ashley are 
now occupied by Sears Roebuck & 
Co., which is expected to vacate 
early in the spring. The rest of 
the building will be occupied imme- 
diately. 

As indicative of the magnitude 
of the depot’s activities, Lieut. Col. 
Stacey pointed out that it procures, 
stores and issues medical supplies 
for all army installations in 22 
states from Montana to Alabama. 
It is the only depot in the country 
devoted solely to medical supplies, 
other offices being adjuncts of gen-

amination, after relating yesterday 
how he “covered up” for Norville 
W. Brickey, former president of 
the bank, by removing deposit 
sheets to conceal cash and security 
withdrawals from customers’ ac- 
counts. 

Brickey, former Mayor and lead- 
ing citizen of Festus, is on trial 
for a second time on charges of 
making false reports on the condi- 
tion of the bank to the Federal De- 
posit Insurance Corporation. A 
jury is hearing the case in Judge 
John Caskie Collet’s Court. The 
first trial ended in a jury disagree- 
ment. 

Testifying about the circum- 
stances under whic hhe bought 
stock of the bank owned by Brickey, 
Porter said they were told in 1938 
by William A. Borders, an examiner 
for the Federal Deposit Insurance 
Corporation, that if Brickey failed 
to get rid of his stock, the FDIC 
would cancel the bank’s insurance. 

The witness quoted Brickey as 
saying to him later: “Charley, I’m 
willing to get out, but I want to 
sell my stock and I want $125 a

Porter said he replied: “That's 
going to: leave me in a terrible 
hole, with conditions what they 
are.” 

Brickey’s Alleged Reply. 

Brickey’s reply, the witness said, 
was: “Charley, I've always told 
you I would protect you. I owe 
$15,000 to the Mutual Bank & Trust 
Co. on my stock. But you needn't 
worry, I'll take care of you.” 

Later, Porter and Charles C. Eng- 
land, vice-president of the Citizens’ 
Bank, borrowed from the National 
Stockyards Bank in East St. Louis 
and bought Brickey’s stock, Porter 
testified. 

The witness identified 48 record 
sheets of depositors’ accounts. with 
the bank, which he said were re- 
moved to cover up bank shortages, 
totaling $112,000, between 1936 and 
1938. 

Between 1925 and 1938, Porter 
continued, 90 per cent of the bonds 
bought and sold by the bank were 
selected by Brickey, without refer- 
ence to the bank's bond committee 
or the board of directors. 

Manipulations Stopped. 

Porter testified yesterday that aft- 
er customers’ accounts had been 
depleted by withdrawals by Brickey, 
checks drawn on the accounts were 
honored even though the accounts 
no longer were on the books. After 
& permanemt bond record was es- 
tablished in 1934, he continued, 
Brickey quit manipulating tha? ac- 
count. He added he begged Brickey 
to make up a shortage in the ac- 
count. 

After 1934, Porter continued, he 
himself took small amounts from 
bank accounts in the same manner 
Brickey had employed, taking $12,- 
000 in all. “Do you want the jury 
to understand that Judge Brickey 
quit stealing in 1934 and then you 
began?” asked Defense Attorney 
Roscoe Anderson. “Yes,” Porter 
replied. Porter has pleaded guilty 
of embezzlement and falsification 
of the bank’s records but has not 
been sentenced yet. 

Brickey was freed last January 
of Federal embezzlement charges. 
In December, 1939, he was con- 
victed in State Court of obtaining 
by false pretenses a $2953 warrant 
from the Festus School Board, which 


cuit Court of Appeals were made 
for the Labor Board by Charles 
Fahy, who then was general coun- 
sel for the board and now is As- 
sistant United States Solicitor-Gen- 
eral, and by Robert Watts, who 
succeeded Fahy. The company was 
represented by Robert E. Blake and 
Richard O. Rumer. 

The charges against the Interna- 
tional Shoe Co. were lodged with 
the Labor Board by the Hannibal 
local of the AFL Boot and Shoe 
Workers’ Union, which had been re- 
peatedly unsuccessful in organizing 
the shoe workers there. The three 
plants of the company form Han- 
nibal’s main business interests,

BERLIN, Dec. 10 (AP). 
wiOLLOWING is a partial tert o 

Adolf Hitler's address today t 
munitions workers: 

My German fellow citizens, wom 
en, my German workers! I spea! 
very seldom now, first, because 
have little time to speak; seconc 
because I believe it is better at thi 

e to act than to speak. 
We find ourselves amid a contre 
which aims at more than vic 
one or another country. | 
ory te ig a struggle of two worlds 

[ shall to give you a shor 
insight into the reasons for thi 
ay TC English, Italians an 
Frenchmen are the core of the na 
tions which stood in war agains 
each other. If I now compare the 
peoples the following facts are r 


rid. 
wirnirty-seven million French rul 


and govern a region of roughi 
10,000,000 square kilometers. 

Forty-five million Italians have a 
grea of useful regions of hardly ha 
a million square kilometers. 

Highty-five million Germans ha 
a living space of hardly 6000 
uare kilometers and these on 
through their own initiative. 

That means that 85,000,000 Ge 
mans have 600,000 square kilomete 
gt their disposal whereon they mu 
make a living, and 46,000,000 En 
glish have 40,000,000 square kil

tributed by Providence or by 
mighty God.

one of three objectives for us in 


wel-jorder, first of all, to organize the 


tween rich and poor must be bal- 
anced, thus in the life of ‘peoples 


agrees to regulation which is nego- 
tiable on common fundamentals 
or, suppressed and overwhelmed 
by misfortune, he will one day take 
what belongs to him. 

This is inwardly the same with 
people and outwardly the, same. 
Domestically, I put myself to the 
task of solving these problems with 
an appeal to reason to bridge the 
rift between too large wealth on 


‘one side and too great poverty on 


the other through an appeal to in- 
sight of all, recognizing, however, 
that such procedures cannot be 
carried out between today and to- 
morrow, but that it is still prefer- 
able to bring classes, which have 
excessively separated from each 
other,-closer to each other than to 
bring such a solution by force. 

The right to live belongs to all 
nations. It won’t do for one peo- 
ple to say “we'll let you others 
take part in our life.” It isn’t a 
question of charity. It is a ques- 
tion of obtaining one’s rights. 

The essence of every realistic 
sense of order is to see to it that 
alms are not given, but instead 
that rights are established. It isn’t 
a question of doling out alms as 
an act of mercy to peoples who 
are short-changed on the distribu- 
tion of the world, but it is a ques- 
tion of maintaining rights for hu- 
man beings just as is the case in 
normal life. 


The Right to Live and 
The Right to the Soil. 


The right to live constitutes a 
claim of fundamental nature. The 
right to live includes the right to 
the soil, which alone gives life. 
For this claim peoples have even 
fought when a lack of wisdom 
threatened to interfere with their 
relationship, for they knew that 
even bloody sacrifices are better 
than the gradual dying off of na- 


tions. 
Fd 


When we took over, we demand- 
ed first national unity as this was 
necessary for giving us the neces- 
sary strength to satisfy our claims. 

National unity, therefore, was 


entire German strength, to show 
the German people how great is 
its strength in general that it 
would thus again become conscious 
of its power, then to make its de- 
mands and carry them through. 
This national unity I expect to 
attain by an appeal to reason. 
During that period of nearly 15 
years I was booed from both sides. 

One side charged: “You want 
to pull us who belong to the in- 
telligentsia—to the upper crust— 
down to the same level as those 
others.” And so at the beginning 
of our National Socialist revolution 
in 1933 we promulgated two de- 
mands. The first demand was that 
for national unity of our people in 
the conviction that, without this 
decision to bring everybody to- 
gether, the necessary force could 
not be mobilized for issuing and 
especially for attaining the neces- 
gary German claims to life. 

Our people of that time faced 
collapse, our economy a destructive 
dissolution, our, agriculture was 
ruined. 


Rise in Number Who 

Support Leader’s Views. 

One side could not be convinced 
and‘ still today there are people 
who cannot be convinced. But on 
the whole there is a steady rise 
in the number of those who recog- 


nize that with the disintegration 
of the German peoples and the 
body political all classes must per- 
ish. 

I was also fought from another 
quarter. These people said we are 
conscious of our class. Human 
beings are the products of their 
bringing up and this, unfortunately, 
practically begins with birth. 
Everyone wants to remain within 
the sphere which he attained 
through education. I know that 
whatever was done in three or 
four or five centuries a single per- 
son cannot move within two or 
three or five years. 

The decisive thing is that some- 
one start on the way to remove all 
this. ? 

At that time I recognized the 
following essential: We must estab- 
lish this German community of 
interest if we want to expect any- 
thing whatever from our peoples. 
That this was right was apparent 
from the facts that all of our ene- 
mies opposed this. 

This national unity was our first 
demand. Piece by piece and move 
by move, this was realized. 

My second demand was: The re- 
moval of foreign political oppres- 
sion as exemplified by the treaty of 
Versailles whereby, among other 
things, our colonies and posses- 
sions were taken from us. In 
other words, my second demand 
was to fight against Versailles. . I

isaid- this even when I was still a 


soldier, 
‘Other World’ Opposed 

Nazi National Unity. 

The rest of the world didn’t want 
our national unity, and it was de- 
termined to continue the Versailles 
system. My first lecture was a 
lecture against collapse, against the 
Versailles treaty and in favor of 
re-erection of a strong German 
Reich, With that I began. What I 
achieved ‘since then is therefore 
no new establishment of aims, but 
the oldest thing imaginable. Here- 
in lies the first reason for the con- 
flict in which we now find our- 
selves. The other world did not 
desire our domestic unity because 
it knew that then the demand for 
living space for the masses of our 
people could be converted into reali- 
ty. 

They decided upon retention of 
this law of Versailles wherein they 
saw a second Westphalian peace. 
Added hereto was another reason, 
I already said that the world was 
divided up unequally. American 
and English observers spoke of the 
haves and have-nots. We English, 
we Americans, we French are the 
haves, and whoever hasn’t ‘must 
remain satisfied with not having. 
To some, I was the representative 
of the have-nots. 

Whoever hasn’t anything won’t 
get anything either. All my life I 
have been a have-not. I count my- 
self as one of their number and 
have fought for them. Now again, 
I enter the fight as the representa- 
tive of the have-nots. I will never 
recognize the claims of others to 
that which they have gained by 
force and robbery. In no case will 
I permit this.claim to apply’ to 
what has been taken from us. 

It is interesting to observe the 
mode of living of the rich. They 
had so-called democracy in the 
Anglo-French world. In _ reality, 
capitalism reigns supreme, that is, 
there’s a band of several hundred 
people who possess unmeasurable 
fortunes and who, because of the 
peculiar construction of the state, 
are more or less completely inde- 
pendent and free, 


‘Press Subservient 
To Capital, He Charges. 


It is said this means rule by the 
people. But when you look’ closer, 
the people as such have not an 
opinion—it is placed before them. 
Now, who places this viewpoint be- 
fore them? Why, it is capitalism! 

The slogan of liberty really means 


freedom of economy, namely for 
everybody to grab for himself with- 
out State control. Capital first 
makes the newspapers subservient. 
The lord of the so-called free press 
is the man who supplies the cap- 
ital; this press molds public opin- 
jon, the papers appear according 
to political parties, but in reality 
there is no difference between them. 


There’s no real opposition—the 
opposition really holds the same 
view. These differ as little from 
each other as they used to differ 
with us in former times. You re- 
member no doubt those old parties. 
It was the same thing. Usually 
they are divided up into families. 
One is conservative, the other. is 
liberal and in a third case, in Eng- 
land, one’ belongs to the Labor 
Party. In reality, all three sit to- 
gether as members of the same 
family and agree exactly on their 
future attitude. Added to this is 
the fact that the world’s chosen 
people actually constitute one com- 
munity and that they move and di- 
rect all these organizations. 


Now one might suppose that in 
lands of freedom and democracy 
everybody lived in plenty. The con- 
trary is true. Nowhere is the stand- 
ard of the masses lower. 

That’s your rich England: 40,000,- 
000 square kilometers controlled by 
it. In return, for instance, 100,000,- 
000 colonial workers must work in 
India under a miserable standard of 
living. 


One might think that in England 
itself, at least, every - individual 
must share these riches. On. the 
contrary, in these countries differ- 
ences between classes are the 
crassest imaginable. Poverty on 
one hand that, baffles description, 
wealth on the other hand § that 
equally baffles description. England 
for decades has had two and a 
half million unemployed. 

Rich America has 12 to 13 million 
unemployed annually. 

What are we to say, then, about 
ourseives? 


Believes 6 Per Cent 
Dividends Are Enough. 


After we over here have 
erected certain barriers it is said 
immediately: They are terrorizing 
liberty. In other words, we are 
terrorizing liberty at the expense 
of the common weal. These peo- 
ple, to give but one example, have 
the possibility of pocketing up to 
160 per cent dividends from the 
ammunition industry. They say 


ground and prove victorious all 


this will) stop. They're right. i 
believe 6 per cent sufficient. 


‘world to go under beeause they fear 


over to England. 
They say: “We don’t like these 


ods? 


gle window being smashed. 

They claim in England that we 
have terrorized liberty. 
true, namely when freedom was at 
the expense of the common weal. 
Certainly, we won’t permit anybody 
freely to dispose of his earnings 
if, thereby, the common weal is in- 
terfered with. 


Those othres are right when they 
say: We can never be reconciled 
with this world. They are fighting, 
for instance, for the upkeep of the 
gold standard. I understand this. 
They have the gold. Our gold was 
robbed and squeezed out of us. 
When I came to power it wasn't 
malice on my part that prompted 
me to turn from the gold standard, 
for there wasn’t any there any 
longer, nor was it difficult for me 


process, 


When someone hasn’t anything he 
can easily part with it. And I 


different one. For us gold is no 
jugating and lording it over peo- 
ples. When I came to power I en- 
tertained but one hope in which I 
trusted. 


We placed our confidence in the 
ability of the German people and 
the intelligence of our technicians, 
chemists, 
inventors, etc. 


“All Our Gold Has Been 
Taken Away From Us.” 


Two worlds are in conflict, two 
philosophies of life. They say we 
should help to keep up the gold 
standard. Of course, for they have 
the gold and we haven't it. In 


has been taken away from us. 


Should we go to pieces, I asked 
myself, because we have no gold? 


Our capacity for work is our 
gold, our capital, and with it we 
will defeat the entire world. 

I built up my entire economy on 
the conception of work. Those 


that if these German methods gain 


who have gold have failed com- 


It’s natural for the English lead-/n 
ers to say they don’t want their 


Germany’s new ideas may spring 


methods.” What were those meth- 
I am proud that the revolu- 
tion occurred in 1933 without a sin-: 


Yes, that’s 


to carry out this turning away 


wasn’t unhappy about it either. Our 
economic structure is an entirely 


factor of value, but a factor for sub- 


pletely. ~You can't get anybody to 
take British pounds, even if you 


Our mark, although at first there 
was no gold whatever, remained 
stable. Why? My compatriots, be- 
cause you stood behind us. 

If I had said publicly eight or 
nine years ago that our problem 
would be where to get enough la- 
bor, people would have said I was 
crazy. But today we have one 
problem—where do we get work- 
ers? Work creates work. 


What we are reconstructing is a 
world of co-operative labor, but al- 
so a world of co-operative duties 
. «» For the first time in our own 
German history there exists a state 
which, in principle, has removed all 
social prejudices as regards ap- 
pointment to positions. 

This applies fot only to civil 
life. I myself am the best docu- 
ment to prove this. I’m not even 
trained in the laws. Nevertheless 
I’m your leader. Above all, we are 
feeling into the future. We have 
countless schools, national, politi- 
cal, educational institutions and 
Adolf Hitler schools—Adolf Hitler 
schools into which we bring tal- 
ented children of our broad masses 
whose parents can never pay for 
their children to obtain their own 
education. : 


We have generals today who 22 
or 23 years ago were privates or 
non-commissioned officers. 


A State in Which Only 
Achievement Matters. 


Our ideal is that every position 


in the country shall be filled by 


inventors, organizers of 


the course of 15 years all our gold. 


a true son of the people. We want 
a state in which birth matters noth- 
ing, achievement means everything. 
For this we are working with tre- 
mendous fanaticism. Contrasted 
with this is the idea of our ene- 
mies—a fight for egoism, for cap- 
ital, for individual and family priv- 
ileges. 

Our enemies know that if they 
succumb then they havé bought all 
their gold in vain, then family dy- 
nasties will be removed, and there 
will be a collapse. 

One of these two worlds must 
break asunder. The traffic signals 
are now placed as follows: Gold 
versus labor. 

I want to make our country beau- 
tiful. I want the theaters for ev- 


erybody. For all this I wanted our 


‘All that 


ments. 

We have, therefore, greater pos- 
sibilities to fill this state from the 
bottom up. That is our aim, that is 
our joy in life. We aer thinking of 
a state in the future in which eVery 
position will be filled by the ablest . 
Son of our people, irrespective of 
his origin. ; 

Contrasting with this there is an- 
other struggle, another world where 
the final ideal is always the strug- 
gle for fortune and for capital, a 
fight for egotism of individuals. 

We know perfectly well that if we 
succumb in this fight, that is the 


,end, That other world says, “If we 


lose then our world capitalistic 
structure will crumble.” 


“Those Are Two Worlds 
L Belileve One Must Crack’ 


I can also understand if they de- 
clare: “We want to prevent this 
under all circumstaces.” Those are 
two worlds, and I believe one of 
these worlds must crack up. If 
we crack up, the German people 
should crack with us. If the other 
world cracks, I am convinced that 
it will only then. become free. For 
our fight is not directed against 
Englishmen as men, nor against 
Frenchmen. We have no quarrel 
with them. We made no demands, 

I demand nothing from them ex- 
cept the right for Germans to 
unite, and, secondly, to return to 
them what was taken from them. 

How often have I stretched out 
my hand! I was not in any mood 
to arm. That devours so much 
labor power. I wanted to use 
German labor power for other plans, 
My ambition is to make the Ger- 
man people rich and the German 
land beautiful. I would like us to 
have the most beautiful and best 
Culture. . .. 

I propose limitations in certain 
categories of armament. That was 
declined. I proposed that the air 
force be taken entirely out of wars, 
That, too, wag declined. I proposed 
limitation of the bombing weapon, 
was declined. They said 
the latter is exactly the weapon 
with which we want to force our 
regime upon you. Once it becomes 


necessary to defend oneself I de- 


ifend myself with undaunted fan- 


aticism. 

I have no responsibility for the 
World War. But who are the peo- 
ple who today lead England? The 
same who even before the World 
War had been inciters. 

The same Churchill who even in

fellow citizens, the sacrifices. 

They are very hard for in- 
dividuals, but if we add and judge 
by sacrifices of the World War, 
how incomparably small are they 
. , « because for the first time men 
did not march with the feeling of 
having a smaller number of arms 
of inferior quality. 

Our arms are better in every 
field. That’s the difference  be- 
tween this and the World War. 

In this fight the munitions prob- 
lem has never been a problem at 
all. . . . Today We are armed for 
any eventuality. England may do 
what she will—she will sustain 
harder hits with each weapon. 


She will receive a heftier blow 
every new week and if she wants 
to gain a foothold somewhere on 
the continent; then we will meet 
again. And I hope we haven't for- 
gotten anything and the British 
will remember everything. 

I did not want aerial warfare. We 
launched no night attacks, but then 
that great strategist Churchill de- 
cided to launch unrestricted air 
warfare, beginning at Freiburg. I 
waited one month for them to cease 
this sort of combat. I waited two 
months, three months—but now we 
are conducting the war as_ they 
want it. 

We now accept the challenge; we 
shall conduct it to a finish. 

During the entire Polish cam- 
paign we did not conduct this sort 
of fight. . . . I ‘wanted military

front, to fight Against soldiers, not

will be conducted with all the de-

posal. We determine the hour for 
this conflict. :-I decide in such mat- 
ters . .. We do not desire to 
achieve any successes of prestige, 
but want to be guided solely by 
matter-of-fact military considera- 
tions. 

Whatever must be done will be 
done, but anything beyond that we 
want to avoid. Beyond that we all 
have but one hope, namely: That 
the hour will come when common 
sense will again triumph and peace 
return, 
I can fight today because I know 
the entire German people stands 
behind me. I am today guardian 
of its future life, I act accordingly. 
- « My own life, my own health 
cuts no figure in this connection. 
I know that they'll stand behind 
me in this spirit and, above all, 
the German armed forces, man for 
man, officer for officer. | 
The world must take cognizance 
of one thing: There will be no de- 
feat in Germany, either military 


time. Whatever may happen, Ger- 
many will emerge victorious from 
this fight. I am not a man who, 
once he is engaged in a _ fight, 
breaks it off to his own disfavor. 
I have proven this in my life... . 
When I entered political life I told 
my followers that in our lexicon 
and in my lexicon there is no such 
word as capitulation. 
All these fools who imagine that 
there could be rifts here have for- 
gotten the third Reich is no longer 
the second Reich. Equally united 
stand the German people today. 
Here my thanks go before all to 
the German worker and the Ger- 
man farmer. These two enabled 
me to prepare this fight and, from 
the standpoint of munitions, to cre- 
ate pre-conditions for holding out. 


Offers Special Thanks 


To Women of Germany. 


These two also create the possi- 
bility for me to carry through the 
war no matter how long it may 
last. I especially thank also the 


many positions replace men, 
This fight not only is a struggle 


fight for the future. . . . We are 
decided more and more to tear 
down barriers restraining the in- 
dividual from unfolding his possi- 
bilities, acquiring that place which 
he deserves. ... 
The others fought their fight only 
for the damned plutocracy, those 
few dynasties which administer the 
capital market for those few hun- 
dred who, in the last analysis, di- 
rect these people. . . . When this 
war is over the great work of cre- 
ation is to begin in Germany. 
Then the German people will 
cease manufacturing cannon and 
will begin works of peace and re- 
construction, ... 

This time will come again, when 
we will struggle trustfully together 
for this great Reich of peace, work, 
prosperity and of the culture we 
desire to rear and shall rear.

TOKYO BUDGET $352,500,000 
40 PCT. FOR ARMY AND NAVY 


TOKYO, Dec. 10 (AP).—The. Jap- 
anese Cabinet approved today a 
budget of 1,500,000,000 yen ($352,- 
500,000) for the fiscal year begin- 
ning April 1, 1941, with 40 per cent 
allotted to the army and navy, but 
indicated. heavy additional ‘war 
funds would be needed, 

The budget covers only “ordi- 
nary” expenditures of the fighting 
services, each getting about 300,- 
000,000 yen ($70,500,000). Newspa- 
pers estimated that the army’s ex- 
traordinary expenses (chiefly for 
the war in China) would exceed 
1,000,000,000 yen ($235,000,000). 

Revenue was estimated at 1,100,- 


000,000 yen ($258,500,000), leaving a 
big deficit to be met by loans.

FOR JOB NOT DONE 


Witness in Fraud Trial Tells 
of $120 Payment to W. 
W. Boyne, Former East 
Side Coroner. 


Dr. Walter W. Boyne, former 
Coroner of St. Clair County, col- 
lected $120 from the Centerville 
Township relief office on a claim 
that he had removed a cataract 
from a Negro woman’s eye, but 
actually he did not perform the 
operation, a witness testified in 
Circuit Court at Belleville today in 
the trial of six persons charged 
with fraud in handling the relief 
funds. 

The witness, Mrs. Tillie Toth, 
former manager of the relief of- 
fice, asserted that Albert Ulrich, 
former township relief administra- 
tor, said to her in September, 1937, 
“Doc Boyne needs some dough.” 
He told her, she said, to draw the 
$120 check in Dr. Boyne’s favor. 
Dr. Boyne, she added, signed the 
claim, which asserted the opera- 
tion was done on a relief recipient. 

A pending indictment im the 
fraud cases charges Dr. Boyne 
with falsifying a public record. 
Ulrich is one of the defendants 
now on trial. 

All prescription orders, some of 
them fraudulent, were given by 
Ulrich to a nephew’s pharmacy in 


and Ulrich received kickbacks 
from fees paid to physicians em- 
ployed for persons on relief, Mrs. 
Toth testified yesterday. She said

Mrs. Toth as saying “I’m entitled 
to something ‘besides my salary;

of medical relief orders. Mrs. 
Reiff is a defendant. 

Mrs. Stella Duncan, a relief recip-

signatures of her name identified 
on four medical orders and one for 
coal as forgeries. She never re- 
ceived any of the supplies, she said.

“CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Dec. 10' 
(AP).—Five Chattanooga mer-) 


: 


ehants testified in United States) 
District Court yesterday they | 
signed advertising contracts with| 
News-Free Press without know- 
a clause called for exclusive 
use of that newspaper in the aft- 
ernoon field. 

The testimony was in the Govern-| 
ment’s prosecution of the paper and: 
two of its officers, Roy McDonald, 
president, and Everett Allen, treas- 
wrer, on charges they conspired 
to violate the Sherman Anti-Trust) 
Act through the exclusive contracts. 
The defendants entered pleas of not 
guilty. The act provides maximum 

ishment of $5000 fine arid a 
year's imprisonment on each of two 
counts if convicted. 

The merchants testified. after 
George Fort Milton. former com- 
petitor of McDonald and Allen, ap- 
peared as the Government's chief 
witness and the one who com- 
plained to the Attorney-General. 
Milton returned to the newspaper 
eld last March with the Evening 
ribune three months after McDon- 
ald’s Free Press purchased assets 
of the News, headed by Milton, at 
a foreclosure sale. The Tribune 
suspended publication in Septem- 
ber and Milton testified the ex- 
clusive advertising contracts were 
his major handicap. 

The five merchants testifying 
about the exclusive advertising 
lause said the News-Free Press 

d not threatened them with ac- 
tion if they violated the terms. 
Three of the five said that when it 
was called to their attention they 
notified the News-Free Press they 
would not abide by it. 

McDonald, proprietor of a chain 
of groceries in Chattanooga, en- 
tered the publishing business sev- 
eral years ago with a free-distribu- 
tion weekly paper carrying the ad- 
yertising of his stores. He devel-' 
Oped this into an afternoon and'! 
Sunday daily in competition with) 
the News, published by Milton. In| 
the campaign waged here for TVA 
Power for Chattanooga, McDon- 
ald’s paper took the side of the 
privately-owned utility company, 
which transferred a large volume 
of advertising from the News, ar- 
dent advocate of public power, to

‘Tone should be able to use 


of the wrist and fingers. Approach- 
in*’ from the left side of the bas- 
ket, the position of the hands is 


the left hand. To use the left hand 
effectively the player must spend 
a lot of time practicing, but every- 
both 
hands equally well. 

Don’t be discouraged if you find 
it difficult to make shots with the 
left hand.. Use the left in practice 
whenever the opportunity presents 
itself and before long you will no- 
tice a marked improvement. 

The pivot or hook shot is made 
when the player is standing close 
to the basket with his back toward 
it. The pivot shot is usually pre- 
ceec by some sort of feint, twist 


turn of the body in the opposite 
direction and the shot. Very often 
a player will find that the shot 
made immediately upon receiving 
the ball without the feint will prove 
even morc effective. Simply jump 
straight up in the air off either 
the left or right foot depending on 
which way you turn, protect the 
ball from the guard: by making 
only a half turn, thus keeping your 
body between him and the ball and 
release the ball over your head by 
a flip of your fingers and wrists, 
We have found it useful practice 
to pair the players up according to 
size and have them alternate as 
guard and shooter. This shot is -not 
difficult to learn and is almost im- 
possible to guard. 

However, it may be well to cau- 


tion against the use of one handed

is not pleasant to be compelled to resort to the 
public print to defend a good name. But sometimes, 
when a cherished reputation is jeopardized and the 
interest of customers is threatened, it is necessary to 
speak out. This is such an occasion. 

Several months ago we introduced into this market a 
superlative Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky— 
known and revered for more than eighty years under 
the name OLD KENTUCKY. Its label bears our sig- 
nature—Old Kentucky Distillery, Inc., Shively, Jeffer- 
son County, Kentucky. Every bottle is sealed with the 
green stamp which marks it as bottled in bond under 
the supervision of the United States Government. 

The best bars and restaurants in St. Louis stocked 
this whisky—OLD KENTUCKY. People of discrimi- 
nation tried it and liked it. They talked about its dis- 
tinctive quality and fine flavor. They repeatedly pe 
dered it—often calling for it by its friendly nickname 
“O.K.” which they had seen in OLD KENTUCKY 
advertising. Then something happened... 

Other whiskies bearing names similar to OLD KEN- 
TUCKY came into the market. Dealers and their 
customers were confused. Many who ordered our OLD 
KENTUCKY were unintentionally served with other 
brands. Of course this confusion still exists and we feel 


duty-bound to caution our friends and to tell them 


BEWARE! 


how to be sure of getting our whisky. Just do this 


when you order: 


Make certain that the label is exactly like the one re- 
produced here! See that the bottle has been sealed with a 
GREEN Government stamp and that the whisky is 
100 proof. Be absolutely sure that the label carries the 
proud name of OLD KENTUCKY DISTILLERY, INC., 
SHIVELY, JEFFERSON COUNTY, KENTUCKY. 


These precautions will require only a couple of 
seconds of your time and they will assure your getting 
our OLD KENTUCKY, with the O.K. bouquet and 
flavor that have been famous for more than eighty years. 

We thank you!

“The shelter problem's a terrific

Cockburn’s speech was that pos- 
sessiveness I have referred to, a 
quality resulting from phrasing all 
his observations to suggest that his 
political party and his political par- 
ty alone kad any real interest in 
that rather than fight the warlinose things. I had seen too much 
evidence that this was nonsense.

working hard it is. And so, more 
importantly, are the thousands of 
air raid wardens and the millions 
of people who are themselves con- 
cerned, quite unconscious of poli- 
tics. I felt Cockburn was perilous- 
ly close to making “me too” his 
theme. 


I asked him how the censors felt 
about the Daily Worker. He said, 
surprisingly, “they are pretty good. 
So far it really is a voluntary cen- 
sorship. A paper doesn’t have to 
submit anything to the censor it 
doesn’t want. All the other papers 
have signed up voluntarily, but we 
just submit something about which 
we're in doubt. Of course, we are 
very careful to stay away from any 
military information, but the cen- 
sorship doesn’t bother us much. The 
only thing the Government won’t 
let us do is send the paper out of 
England.” 


Policy Not Clear 


as to Mass Meetings. 


OCKBURN said the Govern- 

ment’s policy, on mass meetings 

was not quite clear, that some- 
times the’ men and women who 
passed out handbills announcing a 
meeting would be arrested and held 
for a while and at the same time 
the meetings they advertised would 
be unmolested. 

I asked him what he thought 
about the position of labor in the 
war effort, asking the same ques- 
tions I had asked Ernest Bevin, 
Minister of Labor. Cockburn said: 


Political Opponents Give 
Credit for Improvement 


of Bomb Refuges—Mass 
Meetings Held Without 
Molestation. 


“Well, in the war industries, peo- 
ple earn @ little more on account 
of the overtime. I would estimate 
that the cost of living has gone up 
25 per cent, but: many workers 
earn enough now to make that up 
and even more. It’s hardest on the 
people who are not in war indus- 
tries, who have to meet the in- 
creased cost of living on the same 
wages.” He did not seem as inter- 
ested in the labor situation as in 
the shelter problem, 

We were talking in my sitting 
room, just before the blackout, and 
there were half a dozen other peo- 
ple there, American and English 
journalists, an army officer and an 
officer in the R. A. F. Cockburn 
and the journalists all knew each 
other and seemed on friendly terms. 
Later on they told me that the 
Daily Worker and the Communists 
were doing a good job of shelter 
work and that people respected 
them for it. They said the Daily 
Worker’s horror stories of shelters 
usually were inaccurate or exag- 
gerated, that they had checked up 
on a lot of them. The journalists 
guessed that although he was not 
the nominal head, Claude Cockburn 
was the most important man in the 
Communist party in England now. 
They credited him with working 
out the new line, of simply skip- 
ping the war effort, of being neither 
against nor for it, and of trying 
to build up their membership by 
doing a good job with the local 
issue. 


Shelter Work Praised 
by Political Opponents. 


HE conversation with Cockburn 
was one of those conversations 
with a political opponent that 
could be held only in England. 
The English who were there ob- 
viously disapproved of him. Yet 
they were interested in everything 
he said and listened to him and 
their praise of his work in the 
shelters was sincere and hearty. 

I asked Cockburn what the Com- 
munist party planned to do next. 
He said, “I think it’s only a ques- 
tion of time before they lock us 
up.” I was surprised, but Cock- 
burn seemed very sure of his opin- 
ion. He said, “You will see. They 
can’t let us go On working in the 
shelters because we are too effec- 
tive and we show people how they 
can organize and get what they 
want. Herbert Morrison (Minister 
of Home Security, in charge of the 
shelters) has cracked dow on us 
already. He got angry in Commons 
and said that all this shelter agita- 
tion was perilously close to ‘Fifth 
Column’ work. That got him into 
a lot of hot water, because there 
were so many other people who 
weren’t Communists who were 
working to improve the shelters 
and they all jumped on him. But 
he’ll be back. I don’t know when 
it will come, but we expect to be 
in jail soon.” 

It’s not a very kind thing to say, 
but I had a feeling he was just 
a little disappointed that the party 
had not had harsher treatment al- 
ready. 

I asked about the Communists 
and their shelter effort in a great 
many places. I never found any- 
body very interested in the party 
or in Cockburn, which is probably 
a shame, because, as the English 
journalists pointed out, he is a very 
bright man and a lot of his ideas 
are very good.

Ingersoll discusses British indus-

over those mountains we 


The squadron leader’s face im- 
pressed me with its joviality the 
first time I met him. It’s not the 
same face now. You could see the 
strain of the flight written in it 
when he walked in and sank into 
a chair. He doesn’t say very much. 
Every officer in the chart room 
knows he’s doing just what they’re 
doing—counting the chances. Only 
he’s been counting them all the 
way back. 

“They'll be coming in any time, 
now,” the intelligence officer says. 
We walk out on the field. By 
the hangar, some of the ground 
crew boys are kicking a football 
around. Mechanics are working 
on a couple of planes to one side. 
On the edge of the field, rows ot 
bombs are spread out at regular 
intervals. That’s where the incom- 
ing bombers will roll up for re- 
loading. Maybe there will be too 
many clusters of bombs laid out 
this time. It’s that kind of a day, 
but it’s not late yet, and nobody 
talks about what everybody is 
thinking about. 


“‘Couldn’t Get Through.”’ 


Then the first plane swoops in, 
but it come in from the north in- 
stead of from the west. That’s not 
a cheerful sign. When it rolls, 
the tractor with the gasoline tank 
is on the job, waiting just in front 
of its nose. The rear gunner is 
pulling the canvas cover over his 
projecting gun barrel. The pilot 
leaps down—“Couldn’t get through. 
Bloody awful. Everything freezing 
up. One mountain right in front 
of us. Hell of a job to clear it.” 

He yanks open his flying coat 
while hespouts out these few words. 
Several of his friends crowd around 
for the news. It only takes a few 
words to tell the essentials. It’s 
always the first sentences that 
count. Already; a mechanic is up 
in the cockpit. Already, the gaso- 
line hose is screwed on and the 


the ground crew are under the 
wings and the plane’s belly, exam- 
ining every strut and cable and 
gadget. 

Everything is done with extraor- 
dinary dispatch, just as if the 
Royal Air Force had been func- 
tioning here for months, instead of 
a few weeks. But a second plane 
roars over the field, and then an- 
other. The sun is getting low over 
the Western hills and the clouds 
are black and stormy above the 
mountains. But they’re coming in 
now and they come with throttles 
open, coming in low and hard, 
and then banking fast to slide 
down easily on the gritty earth. 


Description of Fight. 


The third plane comes in straight 
from where it should come, and 
th pilot lands without loss of a 
motion, or a moment. His face is 
sweaty as he pulls his helmet off 
and jumps down, This time, it’s 
a different story: 

“Bloody fighters all around us. 
I look down and see three blocks 
right under us. I let the bombs 
go—right between two of them. 
Then the fighters were after us. 
One chased us for miles. We had 
to dive through clouds. I pulled 
out and a bloody mountain was 
coming right up at us. Stickiest 
show I ever want to see.” 


_ The tip of his left wing showed 
the nicks of Italian bullets, but 
nobody comes in with his plane 
badly shot up today. Bomber after 
bomber rolls home through the 
gathering dusk. Maybe one has 
had a forced landing—maybe not. 
Anyhow, things look lots brighter 
now than they did an hour ago. 
We hear some of the bomber boys 
cussing the bad luck of the rotten 
weather that wouldn’t let them 
through. Those who got through 
call it a good day’s work. The 
suspense fades away as the last 
plane roars over the field, but at 
a certain hour tomorrow, and the 
day after, and the day after and

No Easy Days for R. A. F. 


In the squadron’s clubroom, con- 
versation is as quiet at this hour as 
in a pre-war London club. The 
bomber crews drop in by twos and 
threes and immediately sit dowa 
for a cup of tea. After a day’s work 
like theirs, a cup of tea is a won- 
derful thing. If you haven’t heard 
the early reports, and if you haven't 
heard what they first said when 
they landed, you might be fooled 
into thinking it had been a com- 
paratively easy day. 

But there are no easy days for 
men that bomb and fight across 
these diabolical mountains. Clonds 
are forever enveloping their peaks. 
Flights have to be made at enor- 
mous heights, where there is a 
more ruthless enemy than the Ital- 
ian fighters. Flights have to be 
made regardless of nature’s_ stu- 
pendous obstacles. 

Daily, the R. A. F. conducts 
bombing and fighting operations 
over the Albanian mountains, un- 
der conditions which must be more 
excruciatingly severe and probably 
more perpetually dangerous than 
aerial .warfare in any other part 
of Europe or North Africa today. 
Even so, the British have carried 
out more than 40 raids on 11 dif- 
ferent Albanian zones during their 
first month in Greece.

Hour Has Ces to Deal 
With Those ‘“‘Who Al- 
ways Have Something to 
Add After Reading War 
Bulletins,” Editorial Says. 


ROME, Dec. 10 (AP). 


FRONT page editorial in I 
A Popolo di Roma today called 

for the beating of “defeatists, 
alarmists, pessimists and rumor 
mongers” in Italy. 


The newspaper sharply criticised 
Italians who buy Swiss newspapers 
and read “enemy communiques and 
news from English sources,” and 
termed them “poor idiots” and 
“rascals,” 


“These gentlemen who smell of 
defeatism are those who read our 
war bulletins with the air of being 
fed up,” the editorial said, “those 
who know everything, incorrigible 
rumor mongers who always have 
something to add when a commun- 
ique of our high command is read. 

“They are professional alarm- 
ists, prejudiced pessimists, empty- 
headed and sour-stomached, who 
still, here and there, spring up, 
alas, even among us. 


Punishment Demanded. 


“Now it is not admissible that 
while the real Italians are united 
in the homeland and on the war- 
front under I] Duce’s orders, ready 
to face any sacrifice to pluck cer- 
tain victory, that certain ones who 
take criminal liberties should be 
left unpunished. . 


“For which reason it seems to 
us the hour has come to beat them 
up so it will leave a mark that will 
not soon be forgotten.” 

Authorities expressed confidence 
in the Italian morale. They said 
the recent shake-up in the high 
command would “give the gas” to 
the military machine for a faster 
and more efficient war. 


Foreign reports of riots in Ital- 
ian cities were denied as “ridicu- 
lous and without foundation.” 


Taking notice of interpretations 
abroad that the military changes 
showed a weakening of morale, 
Fascist authorities declared in a 
statement that “this uproar, if any- 
thing, will only sharpen the will to 
victory of the Italian people and

RISES IN ITALIAN PRICES 
ASSAILED; SOME COSTS 
DOUBLED BY THE WAR 


«-ROME, Dec. 10. 

HE current issue of the 

magazine La Vita Italiana, 

protesting against’ steeply 
rising prices, says the cost of 
wearing apparel has more than 
doubled since Italy entered the 
war. 

Prices of other commodities 
also have risen, and “the cre- 
scendo is continuing,” the pub- 
lication ‘asserted. 

“We do not live by bread 
alone,” La Vita says. “There 
are many other things of prime 
necessity. . . . With things in- 
creasing at this rate, are wages 
and salaries to remain wunal- 
tered?” 

The magazine recalls Premier 
Mussolini’s promise at the out- 
set of the war that there would 
be no profiteers in Italy, and 
goes on to ask? 

“Is there anyone who imag- 
ines that prices are blocked, and 
that profiteers have disappeared 
while the mass of the people 
are submitting with admirable 
discipline to the limitation in 
their standard of living? .

tion we are raising is part of 
the war’s finances, which is go- 
ing to put the corporative sys- 
tem to the test.”

Grazianini Report Doubted. 


A British report that Marshal Ro-

in view of a telegram Marshal Gra- 
ziani sent Fascist headquarters 
thanking them for greetings sent 
two days ago and saying his troops 
joined him in “raising” their 
thoughts to Mussolini “in certain-

Meanwhile, the Italian Govern- 
ment was reported reliably to be 
considering assignment-of a Minis-

MUSSOLINI SEEMS 
AS STRONG AS EVER 


By JOHN T. WHITAKER 


The Chicago Dally News — Post-Dispatch 
Special Radio. Copyright, 1940. 


ROME, Dec. 10.—Italy’s week-end 
reshuffle of war commands, in the 
midst of reverses in the Greece 
campaign, leaves Premier Musso- 
lini’s position as strong as ever, in 
the view of neutral observers here. 

Acceptance of the resignation of 
Marshal Pietro Badoglio as chief of 
staff and appointment of Gen. Ugo 
Cavallero as his successor has been 
followed by far-reaching repercus- 
sions, of course. But in a country 
like this, it is plain now, as it had 
always been plain, that no one can 
dispute the leadership of the Fas- 
cist party. 

Now, as always, Mussolini re- 
mains supreme. The man in the. 
street cannot think, for a moment, 
that there was a quarrel between 
the military and the political about 
the advisability of attacking Greece. 


Faith in Renewed Effort. 


The man in the street cannot be- 
lieve, following the replacement of 
Admiral Domenico Cavagnari, after 
seven years of close collaboration 
with Mussolini, that the party can 
be reproached for the British claims 
of damage done to the fleet at 
Taranto, or for the alleged failure 
to effect a naval landing at Corfu 
and on the Greek coast. The man 
in the street will be glad to learn 
that Mussolini, “who is always 
right,” has taken full responsibility 
and full charge so that hard blows 
and a renewed effort at the offen- 
sive are likely now to be under- 
taken. 

The Italians are dismayed to 
learn of the loss, in an airplane 
accident, of Gen. Pietro Pinto and 
Gen. Aldo Pellegrini, who were 
serving on the commission for the 
armistice with France, Pinto was

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE 


On Mr. White’s Two Statements. 
To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.. 
WISH you would consider the dates 


of Mr. White's two statements con- 
cerning the Pershing affair (one last Au- 


gust, ing his committee had nothing 
to do with the Pershing speech urging 50 
destroyers be made available to Britain, 
the other a few weeks ago, saying his 
committee had “put Gen. Pershing on 
the air’). Please remember that when 
Mr. White spoke on Aug. 9 he was speak- 
ing into a murky atmosphere of rising 
prejudice, hate and suspicion, which was 
ra reaching the disgraceful excesses 
of a red-hot political campaign. 

Under such circumstances, and into 
such an atmosphere, a wise man could 
not expose a young organization of such 
vital importance to the willful distortions 
and misrepresentations which would ruin 
its usefulness. | 

I do not know if Mr. White falsified 
the record or not. He can answer for 
that himself, if he chooses, but if he did, 
he undoubtedly did it for the same rea- 
son that many good men before him 
have done it, to save a thing that is 
more precious at the time than truth 
itself. C. V. VOORHEIS, 

Secretary, East St. Louis Chapter of 

the White Committee. 


Who Is Behind McCawley’s Amendments? 
To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: 
%7HILE your recent editorial, “The 
Costliest Comrade,” suggesting that 
A. L. McCawley be deported to Bucharest 
as “too gaudy a luxury,” was true, it 
failed to set forth the real crux of the 
McCawley amendment habit. It’s this: 

Who, if anyone, pays McCawley to go 
out and set up this outrageous cost to the 
taxpayers? 

Does the answer come in the following 
question: Who benefits most by having 
16 columns to publish? 

If you will assign some reporter to 
the job, you will soon find that some of 
your friends in the Fourth Estate know 
a lot more about the McCawley amend- 
ments than they have ever told.

He Finds Smoke in St. Johns Station. 
To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. 

MUST deny the truth of Mrs. E. 

Geeding’s statement in your letter col- 

umn Saturday that “these wide open 

‘ spaces (of St. Johns Station) are not 
bothered with smoke.” 

I have been a resident of St. Johns 
Station during the past 36 years, and 
can truthfully say that there now is 
plenty of dirty soft-coal smoke out here, 
and that nearly every additional chim- 
ney erected increases the nuisance. 

Why? Because only an insignificant 
number of the newly-built homes are 
equipped with stokers, or use coke or 
gas, and I hope the time isn’t far off 
when the use of all smoke-producing fuel 
will be prohibited everywhere.

Parking Problem at City Hall. 
To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: 
e Y visits to the City Hall are also 
strictly business, as are those of “St. 
Louisan,” who recently complained to 
you about the lack of parking space at 
the City Hall. 

I propose that the space between the 
Municipal Court Building and the City 
Hall be open for 15-minute parking. 

A LITTLE ACTION, 


Mr. Straus on Post-War Problems.

tention. : 

I want you to know how much I ap- 
preciate the attention given to my sug- 
gestion for consideration now of post- 
war dislocation of employment. It seems 
to me that unless people understand 
these conditions today, there will be lit- 
tle hope of planning wisely for the fu- 
ture. NATHAN STRAUS,

Attorney of a great, crime-ridden city that the Gov- 
ernor of Missouri can say: “His continuous failure 
to prosecute ghastly felonies justifies his immediate 


=| removal from office.” 


Which has committed the greater offense against 
gociety? Which has the more flagrantly violated his 
trust as a member of the bar and so as an officer 
of the court? It would seem that the answers 
should be obvious. 

Yet the Missouri Supreme Court yesterday said by 
implication that the betrayal of a great city was 
less subject to punishment than the embezzlement 
of a few dollars. It said this impliedly in its rebuke 
to W. W. Graves, faithless, recently-ousted Prosecut- 
ing Attorney of Jackson County. Graves was guilty 
of derelictions in office, the court said, derelictions 
so grave that he must be “severely reprimanded.” 
But on the basis of the record, the Supreme Judges 
concluded, “disbarment would not be justified.” 

This conclusion of the court turned on its finding 
that Graves had not been found guilty of personal 
corruption. We are unable to follow the court in its 
distinction between personal corruption and official 
corruption. That Graves did not discharge the 
duties which were his as custodian of the law in 
Kansas City is not denied. On the contrary, it is 
accepted as a fact. The details are spread in the 
court’s own words and decision. He must pay a 
fine and the costs of court as the loser. How could 
he then be personally guiltless when he was officially 
guilty? 

Can it be that Graves’ deliberate failures to uphold 
the law have been forgotten? Has it been forgotten 
that he allowed the charge of assault with intent 
to kill against Charles Gargotta, gangster with 
political associates, to drag through 27 terms of 
court, then to be dismissed? Has it been forgotten 
that he found no occasion to move against Charles 
Carollo, “big man” in Kansas City’s gambling, in 
Judge Reeves’ phrase, but that the Federal Govern- 
ment had no difficulty in putting Carollo behind 
bars as inimical to society? Is it no longer remem- 
bered that Gov. Stark condemned him as faithless 
and unfit for office, that the indictments of the 
grand jury literally burned with the recital of his 
failures to live up to his oath of office? 

The Graves case is ended. He has been rebuked, 
but he has not been disbarred. Under what circum- 
stances will it now be possible to disbar a faithless 
Missouri lawyer? If a double betrayal of trust is 
not sufficient to bring the revocation of the license 
to practice, what will be? 

A promising plan for self-discipline of the legal 
profession under the supervision of the Missouri 
Supreme Court is falling to pieces. That is some- 
thing far more important than the status of any 
individual lawyer. That is a tragedy for the 
entire State.

TAX-EXEMPTS ON THE WAY OUT. 

The door of that celebrated “cyclone cellar for the 
rich man,” as the Wall Street Journal once described 
it, at last is beginning to swing shut. The United 
States Treasury has just announced its first wholly 
taxable issue of securities ($500,000,000 in national 
defense notes), under authority of a 1917 law. Sec- 
retary Morgenthau asserts he will ask Congress for 
power to remove tax exemptions from other forth- 
coming issues as well. 

Mr. Morgenthau is not speaking too harshly when 
he uses the term “slacker money” for wealth invest- 
ed in tax-freé issues. Other Secretaries of the Treas- 
ury have made similar criticisms, and Mr. Morgen- 
thau gives new emphasis by citing the case of the 
soldier serving his country for $30 a month, while 
the income from money lent to the Government is 
tax-exempt. 

So glaring an example of special privilege cannot 
be allowed to stand. The public will agree with Mr. 
Morgenthau’s statement: “All money should pay 
taxes toward the defense program.” And so, we are 
sure, will Congress agree.

“WHERE WAS IT SPENT?” 
It was the princely fortune of an old-time Tam- 
many boss that prompted the jocular hue and cry, 
“Where did he get it?” And now an echo of that 
ancient curiosity is heard in our letter column. 
“Disgusted Republican” wants to know “where the 
money was spent.” The money in this instance re- 
fers to the "precinct allowance of $50 to $80 which 
the Republican City Committee reportedly distribut- 
ed in every ward. . 
The local party workers who toil and spin with- 
out publicity were told, so our correspondent says, 
that “the Republicans did not have much money,” 
That amiable and customary fiction has been riddled 
by the official audit. Numerically a minority, the 
Republicans were still, as always, handsomely blessed 
with worldly goods. They had money to throw 
to the nightingale in the late election, but the sons 
and daughters of Martha didn't get it. Their per 
diem was $3, and there were only a few of them 
on the payroll. If each committeeman was given 
$100 and each committeewoman $50 for personal 
expenses, as has been printed, there could: have been 
10 Republican workers in every precinct, at a wage 
of $5 for the day, our correspondent calculates. But 
in some of the precincts only two or three hewers of 
wood were employed, and at a reduced scale. 
Se the question before the house is: “Where was 
the money spent?” Let us hope a detailed and satis- 
factory answer will be forthcoming. And when 
the Republican higher-ups have happily explained 
these seeming discrepancies, perhaps the Greater 
Prohibition Club of St. Louis and the county will 
tell a stunned public how the big shots among the 
drys administered the $20.10 which they confessedly 
invested in an electoral adventure—an adventure, 
may we say, that is taking on the contour of a 
saturnalia as legal accountancy unveils the volup- 
tuous figures.

A STRANGE TALE OF THE WAR. 

Last March, the schooner Immaculate Conception, 
one of the oldest of French fishing ships, sailed out 
of St. Malmo, on the English Channel. It headed 
for the Newfoundland Banks, far away from the war 
and all news of the course of battle. Out there it 
stayed through the summer and fall, filling its hold 
with fish-end oil. 

Finally, the captain, decided to return to port. 
Winds were favorable for a direct run straight to 
Brittany, so the usual calls at the islands of St. 
Pierre and Miquelon were omitted. Twice at night 
the old French schooner jolted into British convoy 
freighters and, pulling away, went on unmolested, 


salute of an ally and proceeded with- 
over and the crew hastily pulleG down the French 
flag for fear the Nazi plane would bomb their old 
vessel as enemy shipping. : 

Then the Immaculate C got back to St. 
Malmo and, met by German officers, learned the news 


‘ 


the lightning thrust to the sea, Dunkerque, the fall of 
France and the battle of Britain in the air. Without 
knowing it, the old French schooner had run the 
blockade and brought supplies back to occupied 


France.

THE WALSH-HEALEY ACT AND DEFENSE. 

The Navy Department, according to Rear Admiral 
Ray Spear, has discovered a “disturbing factor” in 
the Walsh-Healey Act which, among other things, 
requires firms getting Government contracts of 
$10,000 or more to observe prevailing wage and hour 
standards as these are determined by the Depart- 
ment of Labor. The Admiral is afraid that this 
minimum wage provision is the cause of developing 
bottle-necks in the defense program. 

Some contractors, he reports, flatly refuse to bid 
for orders subject to the act. Others, he said, are 


labor and its ban on unsanitary and unnecessarily 
hazardous working conditions, but they protest 
against the wage clause. 

Since this law was passed in 1936, the Navy, and 
the Army, too, might have been expected to be 
familiar with its provisions and prepared for the 
problems created by them. Actually, both services 
have, according to labor leaders, devoted those years 
to a quiet campaign of nullification, Now that naval 
and military spending is being carried on at an 
almost unprecedented rate and it becomes increas- 
ingly difficult to blink the law, Admiral Spear seems 
to feel that it would be a good idea to get rid of 
the “embarrassment.” 

Why not enforce it, instead? Open market conditions 
force most contractors to pay union wages. Why 
should those. sharing in the unexpected defense 
bonanza be given a special charter to underpay 
their employes? Why should they be exempted 
from the results of collective bargaining when they 
are doing business with the Government that has 
made collective bargaining the basis of the national 
labor policy? 

Of course, the Government should not step in 
as a third party in a private contract to dictate 
wages higher than those called for by the Wage- 
Hour Act. But when the Government itself is the 
paying party to a contract, it certainly has the right 


‘| to specify the conditions under which it is to be 


fulfilled. 

We have yet to hear of an instance in which 
unreasonable terms were dictated. As a matter of 
fact, this is virtually impossible since the Secretary 
of Labor is given no arbitrary power. The specified 
wage must be the prevailing wage. And that wage 
is set by industry itself—on occasion a little higher 
than industry would like because of labor’s bargain- 
ing power. 

If a bottle-neck arises because of such conditions, 
whose fault is it? If labor is asked in the name 
of patriotism not to press its advantage to the full, 
not to strike on a preparedness job, then is it not 
equally proper to appeal to the patriotism of indus- 
try? Should not industry, for the sake of the 
national defense, be willing at least to pay the 
going scale, to obey the law? 


BROWNE ARGUES WITH BROWNE. 

St. Louis got acquainted with George E. Browne, 
international president of the Stage Hands and 
Movie Operators’ Union, at the time of the pro- 
tracted scandals and brawling over the actions of 
his intimate friend and co-worker, John Nick, for- 
mer head of the local union. Browne was recently 
re-elected to the executive council of the AFL as 
twelfth vice-president. At the same time, the con- 
vention adopted an eloquent but ineffectual resolu- 
tion condemning labor racketeers. 

This makes a “fascinating picture,” in the eyes 
of Edwin A. Lahey, veteran labor reporter of the 
Chicago Daily News. Browne, he writes, has “sur- 
rounded himself with some of the finest gorillas 
who ever dodged a day’s work in Chicago.” As a 
result of the convention resolution, he will have 
a furious argument with himself, Lahey says, like 
this: Browne, member of the executive council, 
Says no more jobs as movie operators for the men 
whose career used to be “cooking alky on the West 
Side.” Browne, head of the stage hands, snaps back 
that nobody has a right to tread on his autonomy 
as an international president. “And so on, far into 
the afternoon.” 

It is a fascinating picture, indeed. And it ex- 
plains why the AFL isn’t getting anywhere in its 
war by resolution on the labor racketeers.

THAT ROBIN IN NEW ORLEANS. 
They are a long roll—the celebrities that have 
come and seen and been conquered by New Orleans. 
In that city Old Hickory, still young, may have 
found in a military triumph the first stirrings of 
an ambition that would lead him to a rebuilt White 
House. There Walt Whitman did some indifferent 
reporting. There Laftadio Hearn wrote editorials 
deemed worthy, in the ht of later and distant 
accomplishment, of book-form permanency, There 
Lucius Beebe has dined at Antoine’s and murmured 
the gourmet’s “naught can befall me,” and there 
today a homesick St. Louis robin looks out upon 
Strange sea and sky, hears a strange language, is 
puzzled by the strange atmosphere of idlesse. 
Will the robin prove its fitness to survive? 
paradoxical destiny, that bird’s. Misfortune has 
made it a pet of fortune. Doomed to death in in- 
fancy by fell accident, the good Samaritan appeared 
to care for it tenderly, provide it with affection and 
toothsome fare until the broken leg at last had 
healed. Now it has gone South, in the custody of 
an aerial courier, to escape the rigors of our rougher 
winter, where, liberated from its gilded cage, it may 
attain, through its own efforts, the “glorious privi- 
lege of being independent.” 
Will that robin prove equal to its opportunity of 
freedom and the challenge of the competitive life? 
One wonders... The curse of the silver spoon is on 
its bill. In its sheltered ease, it has forgotten, if, 
indeed, it ever knew, the spur of necessity, the 
incentive of hunger. Paternalism has made that 
robin a parasite, 
And that’s what paternalism does all up and down 
its incapacitating scale. The squirrels in the park, 
the denizens of the zoo, the panhandling pigeons 
of urban rendezvous—they’ all lose the art of fending 
for themselves, And so with man, who can be truly

AND NOW HE HAS TO TALK TO THE HATCH-ACT MAN. 


America---**“The Last Testing Ground’’ 


The Mirror 
of 
Public Opinion 


To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: 


HE attitude the United States is pressed 
T take—and is more than inclined to 

take—in regard to the European war is 
a refutation of experience dearly paid for, 
to put it lightly. The major democracies of 
Europe mixed their lethal stew of greed, 
selfishness and betrayal, lighted the faggots 
of hypocrisy, hate and ruthlessness and put 
the pot on to boil. Now that it is boiling 
and spilling over again, the United States 
feels a moral urge to help put out the fire 
so the European internationalists can put 
together another stew and get it to boiling 
about 20 years hence. 

The United States has partially discarded 
the “make the world safe for democracy” 
bromide in favor of the “England is our first 
line of defense” excuse, but only the histori- 
an of the future will know for a certainty 
whether this war is a death struggle of ideo- 
logical forces or the bleak morning of a new 
social era. 

Surely the peace-loving, kind-hearted, gen- 
erous people of this great land of ours will 
not let contemporary incidents, headlines 
and propaganda obscure the pertinent back- 
ground of the past 26 years—a background 
which foreign correspondents have risked 
life and limb to paint for us. Surely they 
will silhouette today’s events against their 
proper background and view them from a 
true perspective. Surely, this time, they will 
not let their hearts rule their heads. 

Lest we forget, history does repeat itself, 
and that i¢ reason enough to recall a few 
of the facts which are the legitimate back- 
drop of today’s conflict; a conflict which 
has forced us to conscript our men and in 
which, from the way events are shaping 


themselves, we may have to take part. 
* * + 


If this country again intervenes in Europe, writer says, it will be 
to close its eyes to past experience ‘and historical perspective; pleads 
for revival of true democratic spirit to cope with dictators, and 
refers to United States as testing ground for spiritual evolution. 


| dent that Germany could be defeated in less 
than a year if his Government would send 
immediate aid to the Czechs. So, in the in- 
terests of imperialism, Czecho-Slovakia, the 
most democratic of the post-war states, was 
thrown to the wolves. But in September, 
1939, England and France went to war in 
behalf of Poland, a land of medieval serf- 
dom and nobility. 

In the last war, the democratic countries 
might have defeated Germany before the 
end of 1915 by imposing an air-tight eco- 
nomic blockade. Instead, during the first 
three years of the war, Germany received 
an abundance of supplies. Also, a continu- 
ance of the war meant the acquisition of 
valuable contraband commerce, as has been 
pointed out by such writers as Frank C. 
Hanighen. Ships loaded with war materials 
for Germany, and captured by the Allies, 
were ordered released by the French Gov- 
ernment and returned to Germany. During 
the agony of Flanders, it has been reported, 
financiers of German, Swiss, French and 
Austrian industry met in Vienna to discuss 
methods of making war profits. 

If the steel district of Thionville had been 
taken by the French at the beginning of the 
war, as it should and could have been, the 
war might have ended, for Germany would 
have been without steel. Germany and 
France traded necessary supplies of war. 
We learned these things when we still read 
books like “Merchants of Death.” When 
Europe was on the brink of social revolu- 
tion and not another drop of blood money 
could be extorted by the gentlemen of inter- 
national business without peril to their kind, 
the war ended. 

When the post-war German democracy 
was gasping its last breath, Chancellor 
Bruening went to Laval of France and 
begged, literally on his knees, for a loan to 
save the Republic from Fascism. Instead, 
France opened the door to Hitler. 

There is England’s betrayal, for reasons 
of empire, of the Jewish dream for a nation- 
al home. Even now, all the democracies 
refuse to allay the agony of the Jews in 
Nazi Europe by offering them refuge. The 
United States, with its vast and vacant 
Spaces, a nation whose very bone and sinew 
is made of the refugees who came to her, in 
an earlier century, to escape oppressions 
of the Old World, has not offered one square 
mile to this dying humanity. This even 
though world Jewish organizations guaran- 
tee their support. 


The political manifestations of the demo- 
cratic spirit have been thwarted in almost 
every instance by those countries calling 
themselves democracies. Hitler’s first real 
advance toward the mastery of Europe was 
made in Spain. When he declared that the 
emerging democratic spirit of the Loyalist 
Government was Communism from the 
Kremlin, the Tory Government of England 
warned France that if it became involved 
in a war with the dictators over Spain, it 
could not count on British support. 

The timid Socialist Government of France, 
submitting to the reactionary, democracy-— 
fearing French bourgeoisie, left the destitute 
multitudes of a lingering Spanish feudalism 
to the butchery of Franco. England and 
France delivered over to Hitler their new- 
born ideological relative, and France sac- 
rificed her military and political supremacy 
on the Continent to the greater glory of 
England. 

Hitler took Czecho-Slovakia because 
Chamberlain and Daladier promised him 
they would not fight about it. In the spring 
of 1936, the French and Czech General 
Staffs had recognized the incipient menace 
in Hitler's occupation of the Rhineland and 
Suggested to their governments a plan of 
military action which would have subdued 
Germany and insured peace for a half-cen- 
tury or more. But England would have 
none of it. European imperialist economy 
might have collapsed with Germany, with a 


But, with all its bad habits, democracy 
has one shining virtue—its respect for hu- 
manity.. If it can match Fascism in cour- 
age, virility, dynamism and vitality; if it 
can match Fascism in singleness of purpose 
for its own perpetuation, democracy cannot 
lose. Fascism’s contempt for humanity 
must ultimately be its own downfall. 

Through the creative force of spiritual 
energy, Man has slowly raised himself out 
of the pit of economic ignorance, climbed 
the ladder of political awareness and is lift- 
ing his eyes to the sunlight of spiritual free- 
dom. This final aspiration, this last stage 
in the evolution of real democracy, has been 
impeded by the materialism and class-con- 
sciousness of the democracies and has been 


resultant growth and spread of real democ- 
racy, for true democracy could never have 
tolerated an imperialist economy. 

If, in 1938, the democracy-fearing govern- 
ments of England and France had permit- 
ted Czecho-Slovakia to accept Russia’s prom- 
ise of help, the small state could, no doubt, 


perverted and momentarily defeated by the 
godless dictator pariahs. The false gods of 
State and race and possession have been 
substituted for the Christian God, symboliz- 
ing the unfoldment of human. personality.

to admit that it will be a long time before

Assuring a Tin Supply 


From.the Milwaukee Journal, 


N view of the unsettled world conditions, 

the United States is taking measures to 
assure the country an emergency supply of 
tin. Through the Metals Reserve Co., an 
RFC subsidiary, it is buying 75,000 tons of 
the metal for storage. Through the same 
agency, it has contracted with Bolivia for 
large annual shipments of tin ore concen- 
trates to be smelted here. It is now éef- 
deavoring to interest American smelters in 
building facilities to produce about 18,000 
tons of the white metal annually from these 
concentrates. 

All this is wise. Tin is an _ essential 
war metal, just as it is an important peace 
metal. The United States uses each year 
about 80,000 tons of the 180,000 the world 
produces—and not one pound of it is now 
smelted in this hemisphere, though Bolivia 
is one of the chief producers of ore. Some of 
the Asiatic ore is smelted near the mines, 
The rest of the Asiatic ore and all the Bo 
livian ore is smelted in Great Britain. 

Obviously, present world conditions mém 
ace our tin supply. Conditions in the Orient 
are decidedly upset. Conditions for Atlantis 
Ocean shipping are none too good and may 
soon be worse. The only safe arrangement 
for assuring an adequate tin supply to this 
country.is to get ore from Bolivia and smelt 
it here. 

Smelting costs will, of course, be high ia 
this country. In a time of emergency, how 
ever, when it is important to store an am 
ple supply, the added cost will be no detet 
rent. And perhaps, after American smelters 

ave had some experience with the metal, 
improved methods of refining may reduce 
the differential or even wipe it out. 


UNREGISTERED ALIENS. 
From the Omaha Morning World-Heraid. 

N the matter of alien regisiration,. the 
| fouling formula is reversed; the last hundred 
thousand will be the hardest. To date, about 
2,800,000 have been registered, leaving 88 
estimated 800,000 who haven't yet COM 
plied with the law. 

These include some who are deliberate 
holdouts and will remain so until caught 
up with by prosecution, a good many whé 
are simply procrastinators and create & 
problem only by crowding in at the last 
moment, and finally quite a number who 
either have not heard about the law 0 
do not understand what is required of them 

It is a maxim of the law that ignorance 
of it excuses no one. As a matter of pram 
tical fact, allowances frequently are and 
ought to be made on this score, and prob 
ably will be made in this instance. 

Nevertheless, it will be doing a kindness

that makes no less vital the moral respons

PRESCRIPTIONS 


MAYOR DENIES HOUSING 
PROJECTS ARE BURDEN 


Statement in Reply to Realty 
Men’s Opposition to More 
U SH A Funds. 


The two slum-clearance housing 
projects soon to be erected by the 
St. Louis Housing Authority will 
not place an added burden on home 
owners of the city, through the ex- 
emption of the authority from gen- 
eral property taxes, Mayor Dick- 
mann declared in a statement: to- 
day, answering an attack by the 
Real Estate Exchange. 

In an appeal to Congressman 
John J. Cochran, published Sunday, 
the exchange opposed any new 
loans from the United States Hous- 
ing Authority for more public hous- 
ing development here, on the 
ground the tax exemption was un- 
fair. The Joseph F. Dickmann Real 
Estate Co., of which the Mayor is 
president, was suspended from the 
Real Estate Exchange Jan, 3, 1939, 
because of its profitable straw-party 
deals in realty of closed banks for 
which it was selling agent. The 
Mayor formerly was president of 
the exchange. 

Uniler a contract with the city, 
the St. Louis Housing Authority 
will pay 3 per cent of its gross 
rental income to the city for gov- 
ernmental services, the Mayor 
pointed out. In a test suit, the Su- 
preme Court of Missouri ruled a 
year ago that the authority was 
exempt from direct taxation. 

Cochran Promises Help. 

Cochran yesterday: sent a letter 
to Edward M. Thornhill, president 
of the Real Estate Exchange, say- 
ing that he would make every ef- 
fort to get “additional recognition 
for St. Louis” in distribution of 
Federal housing funds. 

Cochran said he had been as- 
sured by the St. Louis Housing 
Authority that, if additional recog- 
nition is granted for St. Louis, a 
housing project will be advanced 
in North St. Louis, “where,” he 
wrote, “it is badly needed.” He 
said further: 

“If private capital would invest 
in projects such as this, I would 
be perfectly willing to do what I 
could to prevent Government in- 
terference, but you know, as I 
know, you cannot get private capi- 
tal to provide these much needed 
projects. So long as there is 
money available, and it is being 
allocated throughout the country, I 
propose to continue to do every- 
thing I can for St. Louis.” 

Aid to Home Owner. 

Existence of the two prospective 
housing centers, which will accom- 
modate 1315 white and Negro fam- 
ilies, will afford relief to home 
owners, the Mayor asserted, “be- 
cause the city now is spending in 
these blighted areas more than two 
and one-half times as much as it 
is receiving from them in the way 
of taxes.” 

“Tt is to be noted,” he continued, 
“that in the areas where these low- 
rent housing projects are to be 
built not a new home nor a ma- 
jor improvement has been built in 
the last 40 or 50 years, but since 
the new projects have come into 
the districts, land values have in- 
creased in the adjacent properties, 
new porches have been built, new 
store fronts have been added and 
there has been a very material in- 
crease in rentals as the result of 
the activity created by these new 
improvements in the neighborhood. 

“The tenants who. will occupy 
these areas are in the lowest income 
bracket and the rentals they can 
afford to pay make them unprofit- 
able clients to the average real es- 
‘tate owner. It is not the intention 
to rent these dwelling units on a 


_ competitive basis with private en- 
| terprise. 

National Program. 
“Low-rent housing is a national 


lightful entertainment. 

The comedy pictures four elderly 
sisters of the same family, three 
husbands and one son. Most of 
them live in two big, antiquated 
frame houses of the scroll saw era. 
What today’s generation would call 
a “bunch of old screwballs,” they 
are quaintly suspicious, cantanker- 
ous and hysterical. They are some 
of the most real people ever put 
on the stage. 

The audience looks into the back- 
yard of the two houses, in one of 
which resides Sister Cora, her hus- 
band, Theodore Swanson, and old 
maid sister, Aaronetta, and in the 
other Sister Ida, her husband, Carl 
‘Bolton, and namby-pamby  bach- 
elor son, Homer. Sister Esther 
and husband, David Crampton, 
come to the backyard from another 
part of town and Homer brings 
home Myrtle, the girl he has been 
going with for years and years. 

The comedy is built on the pet- 
ty issues within the family, with 
enough drama to provide climax 
but without any straining of char- 
acter qualities to form plot. The 
study of each individual, both by 
the author and the particular ac- 
tor, is magnificent. There is al- 
most malice in the fine detail. 


* * - 
“Morning’s At Seven” has also 
a somewhat threatening quality, 
the sinister implications of old 
age, the kind of gloom that hov- 
ered over O’Neill’s “Mourning Be- 
comes Electra,” where brother and 
sister grew old in the s&me house. 
The stage setting, which is a mas- 
terpiece of construction, contrib- 
utes to this feeling. Happily com- 
edy holds the upper hand and there 
is something to laugh at, some little 
quirk

FUNERAL FOR FRANK X. DONZE

Funeral services for Frank X.

Mr. Donze, 54 years old, for the

lict in my obligations to the citi- 
zens and their interests if, as their 
Mayor, I did not insist uvon a fair 
share of this money being spent 
in St. Louis. 

“The extent to which private cap- 

ital is able to rehabilitate blighted 
areas has been very emphatically 
pointed out recently by the grave 
coacern manifested over the slow 
deterioration of the central portion 
of St. Louis. This has moved pri- 
vate individuals who are_ civic- 
minded toward an effort to correct 
this situation, but even they realize 
that the condition cannot be cor- 
rected unless some special treat- 
ment similar to the treatment al- 
ready given to housing projects is 
accorded to their projects.” 
In the period of his administra- 
tion, Mayor Dickmann asserted, as- 
sessed valuation of homes has been 
reduced materially. 

Nathan Straus, administrator of 
the USHA, declared while here in 
July, 1939, when the St. Louis Au- 


thority was established, that expe- 
‘rience elsewhere showed improve-

of the department of experimental

in a hospital here of a throat in-

of Chicago. 


Surgeon Tells How Profession 
ls Organizing Itself for 
Emergency. 


The medical profession ts deter- 
mined that the costly mistakes of 
the World War will not be repeated 
and is organizing itself for any 


emergency, Dr. Evarts A. Graham,/o 


professor of surgery at Washington 
University and chairman of the 
surgical advisory committee on na- 
tional defense, told the annual meet- 
ing of the Tuberculosis and Health 
Society of St. Louis at Hotel Stat- 
ler yesterday. 

The latest scientific knowledge is 
being adapted to the newest tech- 
niques of war and made known to 
the heads of the armed forces, he 
said, and committees in medicine 
and the special field of aviation 
medicine, besides surgery, have been 
established as part of the defense 
program. 

World War Inefficiency. 

Lack of preparation and inef- 
ficiency in the medical branch of 
the army in the last war caused 
situations in which untrained doc- 
tors had to perform operations and 
surgeons did medical work, Dr. 
Graham said. He ridiculed the old 
requirement that army doctors be 
able to ride a horse. 

“If, as many think, we will in- 
evitably be in this war,” he con- 
tinued, “it is hoped that this time 
we will be prepared to enter the 
conflict.” 

Changes in war techniques have 
made new demands on medicine, 
he said, pointing out that with the 
disappearance of the front, war 
has been brought to the cities. “We 
must even make preparations for a 
city like St. Louis, remote as it 
seems from any war.” 

Other new problems which Dr. 
Graham said organized medicine 
must solve are the treatment of 
new types of wound and the co- 
ordination of medical knowledge on 
their treatment. 


Classification of Doctors. 

He praised the American Med- 
ical Association’s classification of 
the United States’ 160,000 doctors 
according to ability and availabil- 
ity in time of war. This work will 


help the army choose intelligently 


from volunteers the 5300 additional 
doctors it will need before next 
summer, he said. 

A rule exempting medical  stu- 
dents and internes from military 
training under the Selective Serv- 
ice Act would be a practical meas- 
ure and would avoid a serious de- 
pletion of civilian doctors, such as 
England suffered after the last 
war, he continued. 

Dr. Graham said he was “dis- 
mayed” at the appointment of Paul 
V. McNutt, former Social Security 
Administrator, as co-ordinator of 
defense medical services. Refer- 


In the same dossier aboard the} 
were also memoranda 
from several administration sources 
outlining proposed plans for re- 
rganization of the entire defense 
set-up. And in conversations with 
at least one Cabinet officer and 
several lesser advisers before his 
departure, the President indicated 
he would ,examine the memoranda 
and study the problem with a 
friendly mind. 

Such are the signs, brought to 
the surface by the current agita- 
tion in the country, that improve- 
ments in the defense set-up will 
probably be attempted not long aft- 
er the President's return to Wash- 
ington. It ig always possible that 
he will be overcome by the odd 
inertia which so often seizes him 
when administrative changes are 
urged. The interminable Wood-

chief obstacle to change has un- 
doubtedly been the habitual inertia

inertia is extraordinarily strong.

probably wise to keep several fin- 
gers crossed until reorganization of

GOSSIP 


About Jack Oakie 


By John S. Truesdell 


HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Dec. 10. 

ET’S nab Jack Oakie and put 
L him before the fluorescent 

screen of our cinema X-ray 
at home as: well as on the screen. 

On the screen: Jack specializes 
in being a “dope.” His wide, good- 
natured smile is 
always present. 
He’s a boob with 
a personality. . 
He’s had two. 
screen careers. 
He’s well launch- 
ed into his second 
now, which 
shows every 
promise of being 
far greater than 
his first. When 
you see him in 
“The Great Dic- 
tator,” “Tin Pan 
Alley,” and “Lit- 
tle Men,” you'll 
know why the Oakie stock has 
soared. 
Off the screen: His real name is 
Louis Offield and he was born on 
Nov. 12, 1903, in Sedalia, Mo. That’s 
still his real name, for he’s never 
bothered to have it changed legal- 
ly. As far as checking accounts, 
birth certificate and driver’s li- 
cense are concerned, there is no 
Jack Oakie. 
He’s married to pretty Venita 
Vardon. She claims he’s a funny 
man around the house, too. He 
works as hard to steal scenes from 
his friends in private life as he 
does when working before the 
cameras. He’s known to the boys 
as a soft-touch. That’s probably 
because he can’t refuse any of his 
old vaudeville friends a loan when 
their eating becomes irregular. 
* * ” 

JACK REMEMBERS too well 
the dog food diet he was once on 
when he was broke. 
days of his life came not long 
after he left Wall street, where he 
was a phone clerk on the stock 
exchange, to enter vaudeville. He 
never would have left Wall street 
had it not been for an ‘amateur 
show that one of the big stock and 
bond houses put on. He was a 
great success. He blew his last 
dollar to come to Hollywood where 
he convinced a director that he was 
a great actor. It seemed reason- 
able to the director because both 
he and Jack had spent the evening 
drinking schnapps together. 
That was 15 years ago and since 
then Oakie has probably appeared 
in more than 50 pictures. His 
greatest hobby is raising Afghan 
hounds and he spends more on his 
dog kennel now in a month than 
he used to spend to keep alive for 
a whole season back in New York 
when he was on layoff. He smokes 
cigarettes incessantly, has a 12-

hostess has caught her breath after 
inviting him to a party to see him 
come smiling through the door, 
dressed in slacks and a sweat 
shirt. 

He would rather it wouldn’t be 
mentioned, but his middle name is 
Delaney. 


* * ® 

TALKIE TOWN TALE: You can 
discount those marital rumors ccn- 
cerning Laraine Day and Sidney 
Gilaroff. They are ridiculous, not 
sublime. . Artist Edna Reindel’s 
portrait of Spencer Tracy’s little 
daughter, Susie, is exciting the 
raves of the west coast critics. 
They are comparing it to Holbein’s 
best. , . . Arline Judge, who is Jack 
Dempsey’s Hollywood gal, will 
probably be “Tillie” in the “Tillie, 
the Toiler” comic strip movie. ... 
Bob Stack and Pat Dane are a 
three-alarm fire. 

Frustration Department: Suave, 
attractive Gene Markey now is 
night clubbing the town alone while 
ex-wife Hedy Lamarr takes in the 
previews, also alone . . Marlene 
Dietrich school girl dating Joseph 
von Sternberg from 8 to 11 and 
Eric Remarque from 11 on. 
Fanny Brice has put up a guest 
house on her estate to house Bea 
Lillie when she arrives from the 
London war area . Charlie 
Chaplin is soaking up his winter 
sunshine in Florida which, inci- 
dentally, serves to put 3000 miles 
between him and the soon-to-sue 
Paulette Goddard.

County Attorney Lewis R. Morris,

ARMY PLANE DIVES INTO BAY 
AT PANAMA, PILOT MISSING 


Craft Was One of Three U.S. 
Ships Escorting Brazilians on 
Flight to Rio de Janeiro. 
BALBOA, Canal Zone, Dec. 10 
(AP).—A United States Army pur- 
suit plane plunged into Panama 
Bay today and the pilot, Lieut. 
Charles R. Plosser Jr. is miss- 

ing. 

Plosser, whose mother lives at 
Birmingham, Ala., was piloting one 
of three pursuit planes from France 
Field, Cal., which were escorting 
five Brazilian planes from the 
United States to Rio de Janeiro. 

The plane plunged into the bay 
one-half mile off shore 12 miles 
northeast of Chiman, 90 miles aft- 
er the takeoff. Lieut. R. L. Bass- 
ler, leader of the escort flight, 
radioed the location of the crash 
and the fact that wreckage was 
afloat at that time. An army am- 
phibian plane and a crash boat 
were searching the vicinity.

one of the ablest of Italy’s soldiers, 
such a General as the military 
would have liked to have seen in 
Badoglio’s place. 

Pellegrini had a good record as 
an administrator who knew some- 
thing of all three branches of the 
service. He had been working on 
problems of civil aviation us well, 
and it is no secret that Mussolini 
was very much impressed with the 
record of American aviation which 
could fly millions of miles without 
fatal crashes, 


Other Shifts Uncertain. 


Whether the present shakeup will 
be followed by shifts in the air 
ministry and air command is not 
known. The air arm is the crea- 
ture and pet of the Fascist par- 
ty. Its personnel has had the 
mentality and spirit of the “new 
Europe” to a degree far beyond 
that of the army and the navy 
with their pre-revolutionary tradi- 
tions, 

Military changes in Italy do not 
lead to elaborate trials, as in Rus- 
sia, and the press even devotes very 
subsidiary headlines to the an- 
nouncement of new promotions. Too 
much emphasis cannot be placed 
on the Fascist tradition of disci- 
pline. British reports of a crisis 
are still propaganda and should be 
dismissed as such. Mussolini re- 
Mains “always right” and the su- 
preme arbiter of his party which 
rules this country.

near the front and ect their bases. 
Beside their kind of courage, words 
are mockingly empty things. But 
when they describe flying and fight- 
ing conditions as “bloody awful,” 
they mean something which the rest 
of us will never simply comprehend. 
You can be certain that the Euro- 
pean war has produced few aerial 
warriors who can rival the R. A. F. 
men who are fighting over Albania 
today. It has produced none who 
can surpass them.

$200 CITY PERMIT PER TRUCK 
FOR HAULING COUNTY GARBAGE 


Board Stands on Decision in Case 
of Contractor Carrying Slops for 
Pigs Through St. Louis. 

Arthur L. Button, garbage haul- 
er for University City, Maplewood 
and Richmond Heights, must ob- 
tain $200 permits for each of his 
eight trucks to haul garbage 
through St. Louis streets to a hog 
farm on the East Side, the Board 
of Public Service decitcd today. 

The board decided it would not 
be justified in changing its deci- 
sion reached six weeks ago revok- 
ing temporary free permits which 
Button held. The Mayors of the 
three county towns employing But- 
to . asked the board Friday to re- 
co.isider. 

Director of Stretts and Sewers 
Frank J. McDevitt told the board 
garbage leaked 
trucks to the streets. Other hog 
feeders pay $200 a year for per- 
mits to haul garbage through the 
city, the board was informed. 


DEALERS TOLD OF FARMERS’ 
NEW VIEWS ON EQUIPMENT 


Speaker at Convention Says Imple- 
ment Buyers Keep Up to 
Minute on Farming Ideas. 

Farmers who ask to see new im- 
Plements before their farm equip- 
ment dealers have heard of them 
were contrasted with those who 20 
years ago said a combine would 
never work, in an address today 
by Fred L. Taylor of Lyons, Kan., 
before the thirty-fourth annual con- 
vention of the Mississippi Valley 
Farm Equipment Association. 

The convention, which opened 
this morning at the DeSoto Hotel 
and will close tomorrow night, is 
attended by 300 retail farm imple- 
ment dealers from Eastern Missouri 
and Southern Illinois. 

“Farmers today are not the hard- 
boiled isolationists of 20 years ago 
and are willing to take to almost 
any new idea,” Taylor said. He 
attributed the change in attitude to 
education received from newspa- 


pers, farm magazines, agricultural - 


colleges and farming organizations. 


TWO COAL DEALERS LOSE 
THEIR SOLID FUEL PERMITS 


Tucker Says Both Men Violated 
Smoke Control Ordinance 
Had Been Fined. 

Solid fuel permits of two coal 
dealers were revoked by the Board 
of Public Service today on recom- 
mendation of Smoke Commissioner 
Raymond R. Tucker, who said both): 
sold coal containing more than 23 
per cent volatile matter, in viola- 
tion of the city smoke control ordi- 

nance. 

Joseph Russo, 1530 North Seven- 
teenth steret, was fined $25 and 
costs recently in Police Court and 
then placed on _ probation on 
charges of violating the ordinance. 
Tucker told the board Russo had 
admitted to Police Judge Frank E. 
Mathews he had sold coal of illegal 
volatile content. 

The permit of Calvin Hutson, 
3142 Sheridan avenue, was revoked 
automatically by the board when 
he failed to appear at the hearing. 
He was fined $3 by Judge Mathews 
Nov. 13. 


Hair Dressers’ Election. 

Mrs. Marye Acton was re-elected 
president of the St. Louis chapter 
of the National Hair Dressers’ and 
Cosmetologists’ Association at a 
meeting last night at Hotel Jeffer- 


Don P. Martinez, 
Esther Irene Reif, secretary; Mar-

The Dickie Construction Co., 317 
North Eleventh street, today was 
awarded a $127,532 contract by the 
War Department at Washington 
for construction of a one-story

The next previous transfer was at 
$33,000, equaling the lowest figure 
for a seat since 1899, when a deal 
for $29,500 was effected. 

November shipments of the Unit- 
ed States Steel Corporation, best 
for any corresponding month since 
1916 but under those of October, 
due to a drop in exports and short- 
er working hours, were in line with 
earlier estimates. 

New Haven Railway common ap- 
peared in one block of 17,325 shares 
at 1-16, or 6% cents a share, and 
the liquidation was believed to have 
been mainly for tax adjustment.

Uncertainties 
and Your 
ib Family’s Security 


Ege! Bee Gi Bes 2 eae | 
ime a ae AR uncertainties increase the difficulty of safe- 
Waener Ei 20100 guarding your family’s future. In planning for 
SS mere ae their security, you must take into account the cet- 
year. b~Pald io inet Socal year; tainty that vast unpredictable changes in economic 
Cluekie mentee co eis ale and financial conditions will result from war, and 
Bn Ani i that some of these changes, in all probability, will 
not unfold immediately but will gradually take shape 

over a long period of years. 

In a changing world, the management of invest 
ments is a full time job requiring the continuous 
supervision of a trained organization. War, with its 

vast uncertainties, greatly increases the need for pro 
viding experienced investment management for your 
estate. 

In a changing world, the investment powers and 
other management powers given the trustee of yout 
estate should be broad and flexible. Investment te 
strictions that may seem appropriate today may not 
be suitable under changed conditions. Estate plans, 
under which income is provided for your dependents, 
should be sufficiently flexible to make principal avail 
able to them under proper safeguards, if the use 0 
principal becomes necessary. 

Where a trust provides. income to one beneficiary 
and distribution of the principal upon his or her 
death to others, it may be advisable to give the in 
corne beneficiary either a limited or an absolute right 
to dispose of his or her share by will. Such a pro 
vision will increase the flexibility of your estate plan. 
Under such an arrangement the ultimate benefici 

aries of your estate can be selected by your wife, 
husband, or child at some future date, perhaps many 
years after your own death, on a basis of the con 
ditions then prevailing. 

To safeguard the financial security of your family, 
leave your estate in trust and name Missouri's oldest 
trust company as your executor and trustee.

DIAGNOSIS: I mention this epi- 


sode to show you that viands 
which may be regarded as especial- 
| ty tempting to an adult, may have 

little appeal to youngsters. Philip 
is much like other children in his appetites. A “hot dog” sand- 
wich or a hamburger represents the height of delicacy and savory 
delight as far as his meat course is concerned. He would trade 
half a fried chicken for a hamburger any day, But the average 
adult wouldn't. And the main reason is psychological. At birth 
we have no inherited tastes regarding food, except for a predis- 
posing tendency in favor of sugar. Tests of infants shortly after 
birth have shown that they react favorably to sugar, and in a 
lesser degree to a mild salt solution. Acid and bitter substances, 
however, are distasteful to them. But where do such things as 
beefsteak and spinach, cod liver oil and fried chicken, belong in 
the realm of tastes? There are only four elementary chemical 
taste qualities, namely, sweet, salt, sour and bitter. 

+ 

BEEFSTEAK technically does not affect our tastebuds in 
the tongue, except for its saltiness. Then why do we like it? Be- 
cause many other factors enter into our reaction to foods. Most 
of the so-called tastes aren't tastes at all, but are odors. Cinna- 
mon, for example, is primarily an odor. Plug your nostrils with 
cotton, and you cannot distinguish between cinnamon and ordi- 
nary wheat flour, for, when its aroma is removed, it mixes with 
your saliva and make a paste of the same consistency as flour. 
But heat and cold are also important factors in flavor. Lukewarm 
coffee, as you know, doesn’t seem to “taste” as good as when pip- 
ing hot, and melted ice cream seems to taste different from the 
frozen variety. Touch, or the tactile sense, also enters, for we 
distinguish between skimmed milk and cream by the tactual sen- 
sitivity of our tongues. We do the same for bread versus 
crackers, ‘

their steak unless it burns their throat because of the hot sauces 
in which they drown it. Alcohol's flavor is partially the burning 
sensation. But our emotions are also a strong factor in flavor. 

Philip likes hot dogs and hamburgers because they are intimately 

ment : and a general carefree holiday mood, linked» 
_ With vacation and outdeor play. He thinks the hot dog “tastes”

"There Is No 
Such Thing as 
Playing Sate" 


By Elsie Robinson 


HAT was a smart line the Chi- 
cago University Forum tossed 
over the air the other day. 

One of the debaters was arguing 

for strict neutrality, saying that 

America should do nothing, abso- 

lutely nothing, in the present Euro- 

pean crisis. Whereupon another de- 
bater cried: 

“But that’s just the point; you 
can’t ‘do nothin’!’ No matter what 
program you follow, you’re bound 
to take a stand. Doing nothing puts 
you on the spot just as much as 
doing something. For ‘doing noth- 
ing’ is ‘doing something’!” 

“Doing nothing is doing some- 
thing”—there’s a five-word blitz- 
krieg that’s guaranteed to raise 
Cain with all forms of human com- 
placency. And it’s particularly 
tough on the fence-straddlers. For 
there's no such thing as “playing 
safe.” No matter what program 
you follow, you're in the picture for 
better or worse and will have to 
face the consequences. 

And the same rule works in 
every department of our lives—vil- 
lage politics, neighborhood feuds, 
family brawls, wherever justice 
and decency are involved. You 
don’t like being involved. Of 
course you don’t. You hate fuss 
and discomfort and unwelcome re- 
sponsibility. Who doesn’t! And 
you're sure there “oughtta be a 
law” against showing all these ter- 
rible war pictures, against print- 
ing all these stories about murder, 
gangsters and bombing raids. In 
short, you want to keep sin and 
sorrow and sordidness out of your 
home—out of your and your chil- 
dren's lives. 

ee oe 

NICE NOTION! But it can’t be 
done. If you try to keep the ugly 
truth out, you'll simply be keeping 
an uglier ignorance in... an ig- 
norance which will catch up with 
you sooner or later, and exact a 
tragic pay-off. 

For here’s a little item which 
you'd better absorb—and pronto. 
Life was never intended to be safe, 
serene or expurgated for any 
one of us. The two chief purposes 
of life are growth and service. And 
you can't achieve either with your 
head wrapped in scented chiffon. 

If there is misery in this world 
—if there are treachery and trick- 
ery, cruelty, injustice, criminal stu- 
pidity—you, as an adult, should 
know about them and do some- 
thing about them. 

For, if there’s misery, you're re- 
sponsible for that misery. This is 
your world . . . your civilization. 
Willy-nilly, you have inherited it 
with all its banes and blessings. 
And you're plenty willing to accept 
those blessings. 

Then stop being chicken hearted. 
Face and fight the evil that still 
goes with the good, as your fathers 
did before you. They wouldn't let 
themselves be choosey. They suf- 
fered endless hardship, shock and 
sacrifice that you might have a 
better break . . and each genera- 
tion, in its turn, accepts that debt 
and obligation. 


Shut the Door 

Where there are smal! children in 
the home, it is particularly impor- 
tant that doors leading to the 
stairs, cupboard doors that prove 
bumpers for small heads, and doors 
to medicine closets containing 
things apt to be injurious, be closed, 
after each opening. Get the habit 
of closing doors and drawers. It is 
easily cultivated and means a neat- 
er house. 


How to Make That Double-Chin Disappear

ness to the throat contours. [If 
this muscle becomes weak and re- 
laxed, the neck loses its grace. 


Make these simple exercises part 
of your daily beauty routine. Do 


youthful, clean-cut outline of 
the throat and jaw. Let’s do 
something about it. Of course, a 
plump double-chin says out loud 


[J soutntai, fullness spoils the 


that you need to reduce. Weigh 
yourself and see. Then cut out 
those rich desserts and between- 
meal snacks that may be respon- 
sible, and eat plenty of green vege- 
tables and fresh fruits. 

But whether your throat is thin, 
with loose sagging folds, or is full 
and soft,. systematic exercises 
should help give you a firm, youth- 
ful line. Nature does her best to 
help us keep our throats smooth— 
she has provided us with a thin 
sheet of muscle that acts some- 
what as a girdle, giving smooth- 


them slowly and smoothly without 
jerking the head suddenly. And 
don't overdo them, especially at 
first—it’s regular, steady, moderate 
exercise that counts: 

(1) Stand with head up; now 
bend the neck to the right, then to 
the left, then backward and for- 
ward. 

(2) Lie on your back with a pil- 
low under the shoulders but not 
under the head, arms folded- Now 
raise the head up from the bed 
and then let it down very slowly.

(3) With one hand on your 
throat, tighten and loosen the 
neck muscles by pulling down the 
corners of the mouth in a grimace. 

At all times hold your head 
easily erect. Don’t just hold your 
head back and tile your chin sky- 
ward, and don’t go to the other 
extreme of pulling your chin into 
your collar. Look in your mirror 
to see the exact, erect posture that 
minimizes under-chin fullness and 
that pulls up the “slack” in the 
throat tissues—now hold it! 

Strengthening the throat mus- 
cles by means of exercises that you 
do yourself, is infinitely more bene- 
ficial than massage, which may 
further stretch the relaxed mus- 
cles.

Everybody in the family will wel- 
come the «tasty tidbits known as 
corn “oysters.” The recipe is the 
simplest type, in which cream-style 
corn is combined with cracker 
crumbs, beaten egg and seasonings, 
rather than with a batter. These 
are fried in shallow fat—and to 
carry out the corn-belt atmosphere, 
the fat may well be lard or bacon 
drippings, or a combination of one 
of these and butter. 

Corn rs. 

One egg, one cup cream-style corn, 
three-fourths cup coarse cracker 
crumbs, one-fourth teaspoon salt 
and one-eighth teaspoon black pep- 
per. 

Beat egg until thick and lemon- 
colored, and stir in other ingre- 
dients. Drop by tablespoonfuls into 
a heavy skillet and fry in shallow 
fat until well browned on both 
sides. Serve piping hot. Makes 
15 “oysters.”

Answers to 
Questions on 
Social Usage 
By Emily Post’ 
T IS always difficult to know 


what to send people who are go- 
ing on a long journey, because 


——— 


_ few travelers like carrying extra 


things. On this subject, one young 
woman writes the following: “I 
would like to get my employer and 
his wife each a book for a going- 
away gift, if this would be proper. 
They have been very good to me 
personally and although our associ- 
ation has been a business one, I 
believe such a personal gesture on 
my part would not be out of place. 
Or is there something other than 
books that you would suggest?” 

4n answer to this, I see no pos- 
sible impropriety in sending them 
books, and if you happen to know 
their tastes well enough to know 
of definite ones they waxt to read, 
so much the better. Remember, 
however, that nothing is so useless 
as an unwanted book. On the other 
hand, a much-wanted one and 
therefore not to be discarded, is a 
packing nuisance. 

This reminds me that if you can 
give books that you know they will 
want to keep, you could inclose 
a duplicate wrapper addressed and 
stamped in which ‘these books (or 
perhaps others) can without effort 
be sent home after they have been 
read. Other going-away presents 
that most travelers find useful, no 
matter how many they already 
have, are such things as mechan- 
ical pencils, fountain pens, or—if 
they have a camera—a filing book 
to store their films and pictures in.

DEAR MRS. POST: In our 
bridge club each one puts a small 
sum in the bank and at the end of 


the evening this money is divided 
for highest and second highest 
scores. In addition to this, the host- 
ess buys a small trifle for the low 
score. Up to now the hostess has 
not taken the low prize or let her 
husband take it, and yet she will, 
if she is fortunate enough to win, 
take the money. How can you 
reason this? 

Answer: Very easily, because 
since everyone, including the host 
and hostess, puts in the same 
amount of money, all have an equal 
right to compete for it. But when 
the hostess buys a prize, she never 
takes her own prize—nor does any 
member of her family.

ee os 
BECAUSE A FULL knowledge of 


such things on the part of the gen- | 


eral public is essential to success 
in this program, let me review 
some of these points: 

The cause of tuberculosis is a 
germ which we can see under the 
microscope, culture in test tubes, 
and by inoculating it in animals 
produce every essential feature of 
the disease. It is universally dis- 
tributed, attacks nearly everyone 
—certainly every city dweller— 
but gains enough foothold to 
cause damage only when living 
cdnditions are substandard, with 
crowding in sleeping quarters, 
poor and insufficient food, and ex- 
hausting work. Or, when a certain 
type of body build conduces to its 
successful lodgment and develop- 
ment. 

It is spread to children by the 


milk of tuberculous cows, though ,. 


this menace in the United States 
is nearly eliminated. 

By far the most frequent way 
for it to be spread is by human 
contact. A persons who has the 
disease in close contact with an- 
other person, and in the great 
majority of cases with a child. 
The danger of one adult infecting 
another is not entirely impossible 
but, in ordinary circumstances, re- 
mote. 

This contact infection is, of 
course, perfectly innocent on the 
part of the infected person, 


onset, the symptoms are so easi 
disregarded, that most people who 
have it do not know it. There- 
fore, one of the prime objects of 
the tuberculosis campaign is to

talked to the Governor, and his dad 
was set free. 

Herbert Johnson grew up in this 
town. He learned the printer’s 
trade and roamed a good deal, 
working at his trade here and there. 
He always came back, though, and 
worked at the Leader and the Dem- 
ocrat offices until the urge to roam 
came over him again. His roam- 
ing gained him the reputation of a 
ne’er-do-well, but one thing said in 
his favor wae that he worked when 
he had the chance and that he al- 
ways paid hig bills, and he had 
never been in any kind of trouble. 

The last time he came back, he 
said he was going to stay and 
backed it up by joining the local 
militia. When the United States 
entered the World War he went 
with his company in the Thirty- 
fifth Division. Trophies of his two 
years’ service are a Government 
medal which names the battles of 
St. Mihiel and the Meuse-Argonne, 
a State medal and an honorable 
mention signed by President Wil- 
son. He brings them out and shows 
them with a touch of pride. Next to 
the loyalty of his two boys, he 
treasures them most.

HEN he returned from the 

war he worked part time at 

the local printing office and 
after a while married Ruby Juani- 
ta McCurdy. The marriage was not 
much of a success. The war had 
done something to Herbert John-. 
son. He had his moods. His wife 
was nine years younger than he. 
She was gay and liked gay com- 
panions. They quarreled about that. 
Then came a night in the middle of 
July, 1934. Aldena Amblers, one of 
Ruby’s friends, was at the Johnson 
home. The two young women talked 
about going out. Johnson said lt was 
too late, but they went, anyway, A 
man, following them, shot both of 
them. Mrs. Johnson died where 
she fell. Aldena crawled to Louis 
Sharp’s farmhouse and told what 
had happened. The officers came 
and she told them that Johnson 
had fired the shots. 

At Johnson’s preliminary hearing 
the girl, carried into court on a 
stretcher, testified that Johnson 
shot his wife and her. ‘Through 
the efforts of his lawyer, he was 
allowed to plead guilty to second 
degree murder and was sentenced 
to 16 years in prison. 

When Johnson was taken away 
both of the boys were taken by 
Grandmother McCurdy of Milford, 
but she later sent Donnie,’ the 
youngest, to Johnson’s mother here. 
Jimmie, even then, talked about 
doing something to get his dad out 
of prison, but the McCurdys told 
him there wasn’t a chance. He 
listened to what they had to say 
but he didn’t give up the idea,

was permitted to attend the funeral. 
That was the first time that Jimmie 
had seen him since he had been 
taken away. Jimmie had passed his 
fifteenth birthday and he decided 
that he was big enough to try to 
get his father out. He spoke to 
his grandmother about it. She 
told him she didn’t think that his 
word would carry much weight up 
at Jefferson City or that he could 
do much good. He talked to others, 
but they just shook their heads 
and said it was worse than hopeless 
for a little fellow like him to try 
to open the doors of the State’s 
prison.

Mess Call in the Army

“Soupee, soupee, soupee, without a 
single bean, 
“’Porky, porky, porky, without a streak

“Coffee, coffee, coffee, the weakest

HAT is what the bugle is sup- 
T posed to say when the bugler 
toots mess call in the army. 
The words are a libel on army 
cooks and mess. sergeants, who, 
when they are out of ear shot are 
called “belly robbers,” but who are 
not such bad fellows after all. 

The following menus, picked at 
random at Jefferson Barracks, 
where 3500 men are fed at each 
meal, make a good case for the 
cooks and army feeding. There is 
the menu of Nov. 7, which starts 
off with a breakfast of apples, oat- 
meal, pork sausage, fresh milk, 
French toast, syrup, butter and 
coffee. What civilian starts the 
day with a spread like that? Din- 
ner (and they mean dinner in the 
army) consists of vegetable soup, 
crackers, roast beef, brown gravy, 
mashed potatoes, sliced cucumbers, 
vanilla cake, bread, butter, milk and 
coffee. For the evening repast there 
is a slight snack made up of beef 
stew, fried hominy, spinach and 
bacon, jam, bread, butter, milk and 
coffee. 

On Nov. 11 the menu called for 
a dinner of split pea soup, crack- 
ers, pork chops, mashed potatoes, 
brown gravy, buttered cauliflower, 
head lettuce and mayonnaise, lemon 
pudding, bread and butter, milk, 
coffee. Another dinner noted, on 
Nov. 26, called for T-bone steak, 
brown gravy, mashed potatoes, 
string beans and salad. This was 
followed by a supper snack of ham- 
burger steak and onions, baked po- 
tatoes, stewed corn, cookies, bread, 
butter, milk and coffee. 

The Thanksgiving spread at the 
Barracks was a belt-opener consist- 
ing of roast tom turkey, Virginia

sauce, buttered peas, celery hearts,

stock there was nothing for Jimmie 
to do. Jimmie decided that it was 
a good time to go to work for his 
father’s release. Without telling 
anybody about it, he hitch-hiked his 
way, about 150 miles, to Jefferson 
City. 

He went first to see his father at 
the prison and told him what he 
planned to do. Johnson was pleased 
but not hopeful. However, he told 
Jimmie who to see, “the main fel- 
lows,” as Jimmie identifies them 
now. One of the “main fellows” was 
Robert C. Edison of the State Parole 
Board. Jimmie went to see him. 
“Mr. Edison,” he said, “I'd like 
to get a parole for my father and 
I want you to help.” 

The boy was. straightforward, 
earnest and unafraid. Edison was 
impressed. 

“Who are you and who is your 
father?” he ‘asked. 

“My name’s Jimmie Johnson and 
Herbert Johnson is my dad. He’s 
in your prison. Been there goin’ 
on six years. We need him at home, 
my brother and I. We're just livin’ 
around with kinfolks, and that’s no 
way for boys to live. If you'll let 
him out we'll be everlastin’ thank- 
ful.” 


x *« * 

DISON checked the case of 

Herbert Johnson and found that 

the time he had served had 
made him eligible to apply for a 
parole and the routine application 
was made and the papers sent to 
Gov. Stark. 

“I’d like to talk to the Governor 
about it,” said Jimmie Johnson. 

The Governor was out of town, 
but Edison suggested that Jimmie 
might talk to Lieut.-Gov. Harris. 
The boy doesn’t remember just 
what Harris said. “He was for 
me,” Jimmie says, “but he told me 
I would have to wait and be pa- 
tient.” a 

Jimmie wenf&back to Edison and 
told him how “@arris had talked 
and Edison said he didn’t think 
it would be long. “He wished me 
luck,” says Jimmie. “He sure was 
a nice fellow.” 

In the hope that the Governor 
would return, Jimmie stayed around 
the capital for several days but had 
to leave without seeing him. He 
hated to have to go back home and 
confess that he had so far failed. 

“Tt makes a feller feel kinda 
little,” he says. But that was 
only the beginning. He watched 
the newspapers and kept track of 
the Governor’s goings and comings 
and a month later, when it looked 
like the Governor had settled down 
for a spell, he was off on another 
hitch-hike to the capital. He left 
on Saturday night and by sheer 
persistence picked up enough rides 
to land in Jefferson City on Sunday 
morning. 

Monday morning, Jimmie went 
to the Governor's office. There 
were a lot of people in the outer 
office. Jimmie wondered if they 
were all after paroles. If they were 
he was afraid that he wouldn't have 
much chance, for they were im- 
portant looking people, the kind 
that the Governor would be likely 
to listen to. He slipped into a seat. 
Presently the Governor's secretary 
noticed him. 

“She was a nice young lady,” he

HOME IN LAMAR, MO. 


says. “She came and asked me 
what I wanted. I told her I wanted 
to get my dad out of prison and 
Mr. Edison had sent me to see the 
Governor about it. She said she 
would tell him I was there and he 
would see me as soon as he could.” 

For three hours Jimmie sat there. 
He saw the important-looking per- 
sons go into the inner office, one 
at a time, and watched them as 
they came out and went away, 
wondering if they had obtained the 
paroles that they wanted. Each 
time one of them came out Jimmie 
thought he would be the next to 
go in, but always it was one of the 
others who got the secretary's nod 
and was ushered inside. As the 
time dragged by he began to won- 
der whether he would ever get in. 
At last they had all been admitted 
or, growing tired of waiting, had 
gone away, and he was the only 
one left. The Governor came oft 
and was putting on his hat, appar- 
ently to go home. Jimmie’s heart 
sank. The Governor wasn’t going 
to see him. He was just a boy, 
that was it, and the Governor 
couldn’t be bothered. 

The secretary said something to 
him, .though, and they both looked 
at Jimmie, and the Governor said 
“Oh, yes,” and went back into his 
office. 


“The young lady came to me,” 
says Jimmie, “and said the Gover- 
nor would see me now, and took 
me inside. The Governor was sit- 
ting at a big desk. ‘You are Jim- 
mie Johnson,’ he said. ‘Mr. Edison 
spoke to me about you’ 

“He talked mighty kind to me

and wanted to know if I thought 
my dad could get on his feet and 
‘look after Donnie and me if he was 
let out. I told him my dad was a 
good fellow and had always worked 
when he could get a job and had 
always paid his bills, as everybody 
around Lamar would say. ‘I just 
knpw that he won’t ever get into 
trouble again,’ I said. ‘He’ll make 
a home for Donnie and me and 
we'll make it all right.’ The Gov- 
ernor said he thought so, too. 
“There were some papers lying 
on his desk. He took his pen and 
wrote his name on them. ‘I have 
signed your father’s parole,’ he said. 
‘He will be released tomorrow 


“ morning.’ 


“*Thank you a lot,’ I said. I 
couldn’t say much because I kinda 
choked up, but I teld him how glad 
I was and he said he was about as 
glad as I was. He shook hands 
with me and said good-by and the 
young lady secretary took me to the 
elevator. She was mighty friendly. 
I tell you I was happy. I had no 
idea that it would come so soon.” 
Gov. Stark said afterward: “I al- 
most cried, myself.” 


s £ 
HE next morning Jimmie went 
T early to the prison. 

“I waited in the visitors’ 
room,” he says, “until they would 
let dad see me. I thought I'd play a 
trick on him. When he came I looked 
as gloomy as I coulc and said: ‘It 
looks like our bad luck ain’t ended 
yet.’ But I couldn’t keep it up. I 
had to laugh and I said, ‘I was just 
foolin’. The Governor has signed 
the papers and you'll be out to- 
day.’” 

At 11 o’clock Johnson was 
dressed out and he and Jimmie 
left the prison together and they 
came back to Lamar by bus, 

Trying to make a new atart, 
Johnson brought Donnie from May, 
Ok., where he had been sataying 
with relatives since his grand- 
mother died, and they moved into 
the home that Grandmother John- 
son had left. Johnson got to- 
gether some kitchen things, all that 
he could afford, and there he and 
the boys are living, sleeping on 
cots, Johnson and Jimmie doing 
the cooking. 

“T ought to be in the hospital,” 
says Johnson, broken by the gass- 
ing he got in the war and by his 
confinement, “but I want to stay 
here and make a home for the 
boys. They want to stay with me. 
I aim to do what’s right and not 
violate my parole. Nobody blames 
me for what I did—if I did it. 
I don’t say that I did and I can’t 
say that I didn’t. I just don’t re- 
member a thing after Ruby and 
Aldena left the house until they 
came and arrested me. If any- 
body would blame me it seems 
like it would be the boys, after 
what happened, but they don’t. 
I am going to try to make it up to 
them.” 

Sitting there by the kitchen stove 
Johnson stares into a future that is 
not bright. Jimmie sits on the 
edge of the kitchen table and 
reads defeat in his father’s face 
but refuses to share it. He has hope 
and faith. 

“We'll make out somehow,” he 
says. He thinks the world will 
give them a break. He tells his 
father that and Herbert Johnson 
takes heart.

and 

of explanation I said: “This is your 
best means of showing partner du- 
plication of values, that is, your 
heart ace to his announced void.’ 
In fairness to the readers who took 
this examination, I must say that 
this was the only question of the 
entire 40 that created any contro- 
versy among the experts I consult- 
ed. Seven of the 10 agreed heartily 
with my point of view, but some of 
these only after my reasons had 
been expounded. 

To be perfectly frank, three na- 
tionally known experts had never 
heard of this particular bid under 
such circumstances; that is, they 
scoffed at the idea that partner 
could read it as a desire to show 
duplication of values. I have made 
this frank admission to console or 
appease those readers who feel the 
same way about it. But this does 
not mean for one moment that I 
think there is justice in their stand. 
Mind you, I do not mean that the 
recommended redouble has a con- 
ventional duplication - showing 
meaning in this case. I merely do 
maintain that no other logical in- 
terpretation is conceivable. Why 
else should South redouble his part-. 
ner’s cue bid? Surely not because 
he wanted to play at five hearts 
redoubled! Could it be because he 
felt, after hearing North’s an- 
nouncement about heart control, 
that there was a sure slam in the 
hand? No, because in that case 
South would bid the spade slam. 

There is one test of a bid that 
I have found infallible. It is just 
this: Since it is extremely rare 
that there are two or more abso- 
lutely correct bids in a given situa- 
tion, it follows that any bid which 
has absolutely nothing wrong with 
it must, per se, be absolutely right!

West opened the heart ace, and 
when East followed with the queen 
zsontinued the suit. Declarer won 
with the king and, in a fury of 
haste to get rid of his losing heart, 
led three rounds of diamonds, 
throwing the heart on the last. 
West, however, ruffed and now, 
soundly analyzing that there was 
only one chance to get two more 
tricks, risked an unimportant pos- 
sible overtrick by underleading his 
club ace. East won with the king 
and returned his fourth heart. 
Now declarer was helpless to shut 
out West's spade queen for the set- 
ting trick. 


The declarer had defeated him- 
self by his unnecessary dash for a 
discard. All he had to do was give 
up any thought of finessing for the 
spade queen, lay down the ace and 
king from his own hand, and then 
start running dummy’s diamonds. 
If two rounds remained unruffed 
by the defenders, the contract 
would be safe, since on a third 
round declarer would discard his 
heart and be quite indifferent as 
to when the spade queen appeared. 
Obviously, on this easy and cor- 
rect line of play, declarer never 
could have lost more than one 
trump, one heart and one club.

Bethel looked stricken. 

“Ien't that true? Huh? Huh? 
Isn't it?” 

“I'm afraid it is—more or jess,” 
whimpered Bethel. 

Toni was triumphant, then for- 
giving: “Gee, I don’t blame you for 
fooling a dumbbell like Pete. He's 
asking for it. Oh, he’s had expe- 
rience, all right, but just with wait- 
resses and heiresses and screwballs 
like that. He don't understand ed- 
ucated artists, like youandI! And 
~—God knows if this got known 
around it would ruin me—but the 
truth is I'm still a Good Girl my- 
eelf! Ain't that the limit!” 

But they agreed that Iris Pen- 
-tire, still sitting by herself and 
smiling mysteriously, couldn't be 
anything so commonplace as a 
Good Girl. 

They were the more certain of it 
as slowly Iris attracted Pete Chew, 
Fletcher Hewitt, the blundering 
Harry Mihick and two newly come 
apprentices: Cy Fickerty, a curly- 
headed, screaming, village clown, 
and Bruce Pasture, a too-sensitive- 
looking boy from St. Stephen’s Col- 
lege. 

The elegant Iris (who was Toni’s 
own age and two years younger 
than Bethel) was quavering to her 
pages with faint, fragile dignity, 
“T] said to him, ‘It’s vulgar of you 
to remind me that I was once a 
chorus girl. I would stoop to even 
that kind of work to get the train- 
ing necessary for my career, but 
now,’ I said, ‘I won't consider any- 
thing but the poetic drama or a 
good part in a George Abbott play,’ 
I said, ‘and it’s about time that you 
agents learned to appreciate sensi- 
tiveness,’ I told him. 

, Toni whispered to Bethel, “Oh, 
nuts!” 

“You said it,” remarked an en- 
tirely new version of Bethel. 

“Let’s grab off Pete and Cy 
Fickerty and go to that dance. 
That okay by you?” 

“Okay,” said Bethel. 

In Grampion Center, Sabbath 
breakers had once been exposed 
in the stocks, and householders 
had warmed their cakes on Sun- 
day only by their pastors’ eloquence 
about hell-fire. But the Nutmeg 
Players, once their season had 
started, recognized Sunday only by 
the dress rehearsal of the coming 
week's play and by permitting all 
the apprentices to sleep till noon 
. . -after having spent all of Sat- 
urday night removing the scenery 

of last week's bill and setting up 
the new. 

But with the first play not yet 
on, Bethel and her fellow wights 
had on Sunday the one only day 
of leisure they were ever to know 
at Grampion. She slept till after 
lunch, following the rather aimless 
dance at Clinton, so unenterprising 
an event that Pete Chew had tried 
to kiss her only twice. She was 
too late to join the various motor 
expeditions and, after a sandwich 
and coffee which the grumbling 
Johnny Meddock dug up for her, 
sat on the sea-washed rocks, facing 
the sun. 

She did not greatly mind being 
alone. She liked people, but peo- 
ple noisy in a mass embarrassed 
her. No matter, she told herself; 
no actress was ever called upon to 
play an entire mob! 

Here, in the Y. M. C. A. of the 
arts, she had hoped to. find a 
friend, a love,.an idol to adore. 
But she regarded the youngsters 
like Toni Titmus as babies—and 
the seniors like Fietcher Hewitt 


considered her a baby. Well, she Andy's fiancee, the lovely Miss 


RIDAY 


CHAPTER FOURTEEN. 

WEPT by Tonf's narrative powers, seeing her own self facing a 
| vicious old seducer of 40 or so in the stilly perils of a one-room 
apartment, Bethel panted, forgot the theme of her own role, and 
stated with.indignant virtue, “A man like that, you just look 
aquare in the eye and say, ‘Now don't be silly! I’m not your sort and 
you better kriow it right away. Don’t you try’"-—— 

She stopped, realizing that Toni wag staring at her, meditative, 
then derisive; and after a pause was jeering, “Look here now, Bethel 
Merriday! My Lord, and you fooled wise old rounders like Pete and 
me! But I'll bet you're nothing at all but a Good Girl!”

The theater grounds, so like the 
campus of a rustic college, were 
blankly peaceful; the water high 
colored and the sails flying. She 
was content, she was a grown-up 
and busy actress — and suddenly 
she was an excited small girl again, 
as the great car, a limousine with 
chauffeur, rolled up in front of her, 
and a young god, sunburned and 
smiling, with cropped brazen hair 
and strong bronze neck, a tweed- 
bearing god of 28 or nine, slipped 
out of the car and addressed her. 

“Hello, hello! Anybody around?

“I think he’s only gone to New 
Haven.” 

“Then God help Yale! And it was 
such ‘a nice boys’ school when I 
used to attend it!”

UT Bethel thought him the 

most magic person she had 

ever seen. She had found a 
diamond on the pavement. And 
unquestionably, the moment Andy 
Deacon arrived, the Nutmeg Play- 
ers came alive and turned from a 
mob into a spirited army. 

Things began to happen. Things 
—not necessarily sensible or’ com- 
mendable—would bountifully and 
rapidly happen whenever Andy was 
around. Everybody miraculously 
appeared from nowhere, greeting 
Andy as Sun God, the moment he 
stepped.out of his Olympian moth- 
er’s 16-cylinder Cadillac chariot. 
The old troupers, Doc Keezer and 
Clara Ribbons, arm in arm, rolled 
across the horizon, murmuring, 
“Glad you’re with us, Mr. Deacon.” 
Cynthia Aleshire popped out of a 
dormitory living room that had 
certainly been empty three min- 
utes before, crying, “Oh, Andy, 
Roscoe won't let me try an expres- 
sionistic set for Candida, and I 
know I can just get the quality of 
that stuffy liberalism.” - Tudor

HE careless lad and lassie will 
Teun into a good deal of trouble 
today that could have been 
avoided—but of course nobody on 
our side will be careless. Note the 
good parts of new ideas that drift 
by in the afternoon and evening. 
Not All of You as Yet 
“Oh, sure,” says the next person 
you meet, at any time of the day 
or night, in any town on any corner, 
“I'd like to know all my inner po- 
tentialities.” But he or she doesn’t 
really want to try too hard or make 
too many sacrifices to obtain that 
knowledge. That is, until the time 
comes when they realize they are 
in trouble, when they haven’t de- 
veloped enough of themselves to 
tope with life.

violin-playing apprentice, came 
caroling, “Welcome, ‘boss.” Pete : 
Chew and Toni Grove up with Joan Hinterwald of the Fall River 


and Gastonia woolen millions. And 
suddenly appearing, facing these 
two women and not liking them in 
the least, was Miss Mahala Vale. 
Andy kissed Mahala, crying, 
“Hello, darling, so glad we're going 
to play together this summer. We'll 
show ‘em love’s young dream!” 
“You must have acted with Mr. 
Deacon,” said Miss Hinterwald to 
Miss Vale, with a short sniff. 
“Andy and I played opposite each 
other for four months in Gray 
Tide,” said Miss Vale, with a fairly 
good imitation of a sniff. 
“I see,” said Miss Hinterwald. 
Bethel perceived that the two 
young ladies, Joan and Mahala, 
were enough alike to indicate that 
this was Andy’s fated pattern in 
the way of loves. Both were tall, 


Pete’s Chrysler practically rearing 
and neighing, and looked approv- 
ingly at Andy’s dark blue flannel 
shirt with white tie. 


In fact, the peasant chorus was 
entering, inaudubly chanting: 
“Hurray, hurray, it’s festival today, 
Our young prince is arriving, from 

his court so far away.” 

Then out of the limousine step- 
ped the heavies — but they were 
too serious for so bright an op-

and politely contemptuous. But 
while Miss Hinterwald was the 
real thing in the way of Long 
Island and Newport plutocracy, 
pleasantly snobbish to the entire 
world, including Andy, Miss Ma- 
hala Vale wasn't quite certain 
whether there weren’t a few people, 
including Andy and Roscoe, to 
whom she’d better not be snobbish. 
Bethel had been developing a quite 
healthy small hatred for Mahala, 
but now she enlisted under her, 
hoped that she would take Andy

Cosmetics for Christmas 
By Patricia Lindsey 


F you know which brand of cos- 

metics your friend favors noth- 

ing could please her more than 
to receive a fresh supply of them 
on Christmas day. 

Sometimes we strive too hard 
trying to think of the “unique” 
gift, when the friend we want to 
please would be greatly apprecia- 
tive of receiving a replenishing of 
one or more beauty aids which she 
uses regularly. Wouldn’t you en- 
joy a huge jar of your favorite 
cleansing cream or a couple of 
dozen bars of hand and bath soap 
which is kind to your skin and 
pleasing to your nose? Of course 
you would. 


If you have a friend who should 
use creams to beautify her skin 
or hands, and who either cannot 
afford them or does not know 
which to buy, you will be giving 
her a gift which will provide days 
or months of joy by supplying her 
with the essentials to keep her 
skin looking youthful and glowing. 
If such a woman is presented once 
with skin aids she is more than 
likely to become a devotee of them 
for life. It stands to reason that 
many women are so terribly busy 
with family duties that they can 
spare little time (even though 
they shouldn’t neglect themselves) 


thinking about skin and scalp 
care, 

If you have ever used an after- 
bath friction rub you know that 
such a cosmetic is one of the most 
cherished luxuries of this era. 
All these formulas for winter use 
have just enough oil in them to 
keep your skin as soft as a kitten, 
and how delightful to rub your 
body briskly with beautifully 
scented lubricating lotion. An 
after bath friction differs from a 
cologne for it contains a skin pre- 
servative which is essential if your 
skin is dry and the weather cold! 
You might consider one of these 
mixtures for the-friend “who has 
simply everything that money can 
buy.” And then, of course, the 
friend who has little will be thrill- 
ed to her toes with such a femi- 
nine luxury. 

I hope you are not leaving your 
shopping for the last few days. If 
you do you will meet the holidays 
feeling tired and not looking your 
best. 


If you would like Miss Lind- 
say’s special schedule for 
slimming wisely send 10 cents in 
coin to her, care of Postoffice 
Box 75, Station O, New York, N. 
Y., requesting booklet: “Slimming 
to Beauty.” 


DE LUXE 

Elegant; sumptuous; luxurious. 
The French phrase de luxe has 
been so hackneyed by continual 
repetition in commercial Ameri- 
canese that it has joined legions 
of other good expressions that now 
have virtually no meaning. 

As Brander Matthews § said: 
“Words wear themselves out by 
overuse,” another way of saying 
that words often die of overwork. 

The French meaning of de luxe is 
excessively sumptuous, very elab- 
orate, especially as to clothes and 
food. But in the United States 
anything may be “DEE lucks”: 
nickel candy bar, a pair of chain- 


© 


‘|store rayon panties, a mail order 


set of Dumas with “classy buck- 
ram binding,” or a car with an 
extra cigarette lighter and a little 
more chromium trim than the 
“standard” model. 

In America, de luxe started out 
as a synonym for luxurious. To- 
day, if the phrase means anything 
at all, it simply designates some- 
thing that is a little fancier than 
ordinary. 

In pronunciation, de luxe is 100 
per cent American. But do not 
say “DEE lucks.” Place the ac- 
cent on luxe, which is pronounced 
exactly like the word looks. 


Correct pronunciation: First

(dubious): dee LUCKS.

|My Neighbor Says: 


Overwatering house ferns must 
be avoided, but ferns must not be 
allowed to completely dry out. It 
is best to let them become 
thoroughly dry and then give them 
a soaking so that soil will be 
saturated from top to bottom.
